Who likes gadgets you can wear? I suppose it depends if they're fashionable, useful or just downright cool. Luckily we had all three this week, from the chic E Ink watch to the "damn I'd love one of those" subtitle glasses to the scintillating steampunk spectacles. But those keyboard boxers were just plain dorky.
Between tech-fashion tips, we found time to review a tiny GPS from Mio, the DigiWalker H610, as well as talk with two of the people behind the Internet "community" Second Life. And wouldn't it be great if you could exchange a mountain of textbooks with a single, lightweight eBook? Columnist Stephen Schleicher thinks so, and keys in on a few of the things standing in the way.
