Bluetooth Dress

Bluetooth Dress

Ladies, looking to attract a geek at your local bar? Throw on this Bluetooth dress and they’ll be flocking to you. The dress, created by a British fashion student in conjunction with Sony Ericsson, connects to the wearer’s mobile phone. When a call comes in, a panel of lights along one shoulder begins to flash, creating an illusion of movement. The bad news: The Bluetooth dress is only a prototype so far. Sorry, guys.

Short-range wireless connectivity has never been so arousing.

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

    Wow the USB shirt is ridiculous. $222?? I could make the same exact thing for $50 or less.

    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.
