Computer of the 21 century
Filed in archive About by on May 24, 2005
To understand the future market volume of wearable
computing it's needed to understand that it'll be part
of a complete new way of computing.

Mark Weiser is probably the best to give a great overview:
"My colleagues and I at PARC think that the idea of a "personal" computer itself is misplaced, and that the vision of laptop machines, dynabooks and "knowledge navigators" is only a transitional step toward achieving the real potential of information technology. Such machines cannot truly make computing an integral, invisible part of the way people live their lives. Therefore we are trying to conceive a new way of thinking about computers in the world, one that takes into account the natural human environment and allows the computers themselves to vanish into the background."
