Wearable Computer Possibilities
We are beginning to see a healthy set of contenders for the space between the laptop and the PDA. The segment is being validated.Sony U50/70 began shipping in Japan 5/29/04
TIQUIT is still in the looking for a customer stage
FlipStart will ship in the US in Q1, 2005
Antelope has been shipping since last November - Enterprise Evaluation Kits only, although their site has been updated to show component prices.
The ARCHOS AV500 will ship by the end of the year
And, of course, OQO in 2nd half 2004
It will be an interesting 6-12 months to see if all the promises can be kept.
Any of these could form the core of a wearable computer.
