All the cool geeks will be wearing one! (Week 6)

Ever since Brian retired his trusty pocket protector to the junk drawer, he has been looking for just the right fashion accessory to replace it. He's tried lots of things over the years - propeller hats (part of the hazing for his fraternity at college), E=mc2 tee shirts, laptop computer carrying cases, smartphones. However, nothing seemed to really set him apart from all the wannabe Geeks out there these days. (You know who you are......)

Well, Brian, Caveman Enterprises has just the thing for you! Imagine a bracelet or watch that morphs into a super smartphone or computer complete with screen and keyboard. You'll be the envy of everyone at Comicon this year. They'll put you on the cover of Computerworld. Good Grief, Man! You'll have more "friends" on Facebook than Jim Parsons! .

The technology behind the morphing fashion piece is "millions of microscopic robots that are to 3D objects what pixels are to a screen." This is actually being developed by Intel (shockingly not Caveman Enterprises) and while originally thought to be 50 years from being a reality is now just a "couple more years" away according to a comment from Jason Campbell, one of the research team members, in 2009.

Note that this comment was made just over two years ago......so let's get you the first one....think of it Brian, you can be a trendsetter - a computer that morphs right back on to your wrists and can be worn like a set of bracers. So, Brian,...... "do you like gladiator movies?"

I hope you all realize that the jabs at Brian are purely in jest and meant as entertainment.
