Wearable was a topic at CNN and beside many known things we find a lot of new and interesting projects listed there.

Wearable computing also has a natural home in the world of gaming. Nintendo's Wii controller already has motion-sensors and it seems it won't be long before more interactive gear, including clothing, become part of a video-game player's wardrobe.
...
Intelligent clothing will remain a specialist item for the foreseeable future, but it has a number of different areas of application, including gaming, diaries and as personal assistants, Cliff Randell, Research Fellow at Bristol University told CNN.
...
Their Diabetes Management Assistant (DIMA) is a wearable computer system with wireless communication including a glucose meterlinks, digital camera and pedometer.
...
Lynette Jones heads a team who are developing a vibrating vest that writes messages on its wearer's back.
...
"The main challenge is making security techniques lightweight, but apart from that people shouldn't be overly worried about security issues," said Randell.

All these examples show us that wearable means a new kind of relationship between you and your computer. "Augmented Personality" if you want.

Btw, the Quick Quote Question "Would you like to own a garment that acted as your own personal assistant?" was answered 62% with "yes".
