This is the many needs through out the world, for the "Enabling of Humanity" for any&every area of healthful use. An actual beherenow industry could simultaneously start 'real' early benefits (hi#s units in operation for real people asap) that might symbiotically combine with its increased empirical prototyping, a benefit to & from research (already well up to speed) that would inturn benefit the user interns? I would hazard a guess that all it takes is a few basement/garage/livingrm shops to turn up the volume enough, by "officially" entering this future *major* industry, that might cause it all to happen quicker due to the improved return on investment,, if the brave folks who need to increase their spending money in this direction hear/see the 'volume'. Remember the voice of the blind (&any other person) who *knows it will happen* but fears not catching sight of *it* before leaving this world. I would certainly offer my efforts to help connect markets to supply (if was necessary). There very likely needs to be some mechanism to provide the accountability, the toughest part of the equation?, that being, the one to one hand holding, training, "user/friendly" learning curve that the early prototype market will likely require. .02 tris -- ÐÏࡱá -- Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with subject of "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" toWear-Hard Mailing List Archive (searchable): http://wearables.ml.org
