I want one. Bad.

Imagine being able to sit in a meeting and record the entire thing on video and audio, including taking pictures of slides and/or notepads. And, taking pictures of the attendees so you can attach the pic to their e-card info stored in your computer.

Personally, I can't wait until this stuff comes loaded with facial recognition software, so that when you see someone you met before (assuming you saved their info), it'll pull up their info on that little screen so you can talk to them, instead of the usual, "Hey . . . uh . . . you. How's it been going? Uhhh. Sooo . . . are you still working at . . . that same place? Ummm . . . "

"And sound goes through bones in the cranium, which is a little freaky at first, but you get used to it."

excellent. i was wondering about that, because you can get the sound directly to the inner ear bones that way. other ways ive heard of it used is through the jaw. but it's great if the sound is directed at your skull. if no one else can hear it's even better

I've used the bone-conduction system before. For a hearing test. Although it sounds a little different, you can hear things at far lower levels without having to block out the outside noise.

With headphones, to hear things at low levels, you need to block out the ambient noise. With bone-conduction, you can hear something as quiet as a whisper while standing in the middle of Times Square.
