The World’s Wildest Wearable Gadgets
Most of these 15 pieces of tech coutre won't make you more fashionable. Just way, way more geeky.Posted by JR Raphael | Monday, July 27, 2009
Digital Music Sunglasses
Enjoy sound and shade with Oakley’s new Thump 2 MP3 Sunglasses. Billed as “the world’s first digital music eyewear,” the high-end lenses come with their own MP3 player and adjustable earbuds, letting you rock out without any hanging wires or pocketed players. The glasses are available with either 256MB or 512MB of storage and are said to be good for six hours of use per charge.
Geek-o-meter: 
If you’re willing to shell out the dough–$199 for 256MB or $249 for 512MB–these bad boys might be worth the glares you’ll get for wearing them.

I think the Solar Backpack charger is a pretty neat piece of wearable green geek chic.

Don’t get too dependent. Most of this won’t work well at Rooster Rock park.

Your link on the home page goes to the Radio Shack swhuld not change it’s name page.
Not too bad for a tech site…..
Wait, no, fail….
But don’t mind the slide show at all…..

@tron… but that’s one way to make money. every time you click next, the page loads anew and the website receives a new “impression” and the ads are delivered anew… etc.
Usability is often not the main concern of website publishers, when they have to make a living off of their site ^_^

Um….couldn’t they make it a little more fashionable? Great idea but really, I wouldn’t want to look like a fisherman all the time.

I love the Bluetooth device ring, so chic and functional.
