1-28-01---- Hitachi Working On Wearable PC

In Japan, Hitachi announced last week, plans of a partnership with Shimadzu Corp. and two information technology equipment manufacturers based in the U.S. to develop wearable personal computers. The first 230-gram pocketbook-size computer will feature an eyeglass-shaped display and cursor control via a hand grip. Look for the devices to hit the market by the end of 2001.

I have a tough enough time figuring out where I left my tower, sometimes. Wonder how long it'll be before the lawsuits start being brought by squished pedestrians who claim it's the computer maker's fault they weren't looking where they were going? :D
