Now This Is Mobile Technology! part 14

How we transport our mobile gadgets, is always up for question. Cases, carriers,sleeves and device holders are constantly in the news because we want to protect our investments, namely your current device. Actually, quite a while ago, I was looking for a review unit that I couldn’t get. The UtiliKilt, is another in the next wave of wearable accessories

What are ye starin’ at, ye wee girl?! This be no skirt, this be a UtiliKilt! Fashioned after the traditional garb of the Celtic warrior. Now of course ye know, William Wallace has ne’er worn a kilt – they weren’t invented until Willie had been stone dead for nearly four-hundred years, but they’re still all about freedom!

Made from a poly-cotton blend so it’s durable and yet soft. It’s got lots of pockets for your crap, so you can carry a cellphone, or screwdrivers, or a beer should the need arise. Big riveted snaps keep everything safe and secure, including your manhood.

Obviously a solution for transporting your mobile devices, but what about wearable devices. How about something stylish that’ll let you enter data on the fly…

There’s nothing new about foldable/rollable wireless/ bluetooth keyboards, have a look at the Roky fabric keyboard, mobile,compact and versatile.

So how do you take this working concept to another level, below the belt to be accurate!
Wearable technology just went to a new low with this concept from Yanko Design. This is keeping it in your pants …

These “modern shaped trousers, which are often worn by youngsters..” are the perfect solution for Googling quick exits while running from the fashion police. Ah, but look closely! Now as you jump over fences and dodge barking dogs, you can take your chase music with you. Built into the knees are a pair of crotch rocking speakers that really add that extra level of excitement while sticking it to the man. Around back you have the added convenience of a back pocket for your “mouse”(which will be your only friend at this point). And for you gamers, there is even a joystick controller located just behind the front zipper. Looking at the key arrangement I am oddly compelled to want to write “poop” over and over again.

Is there more to be said, be careful of the reactions you get with all of the under the desk action you are going to be participating in. This adds a whole new idea to the laptop, don’t get caught.
