:-? may be you can speak with Nemo, i think the wearable thing is just the same work they are doing with planb/plan-c?, so he probably has not only ideas, but experiencies in doing such things. slds. gabi On 5/17/07, [EMAIL PROTECTED] <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:

We've got some hardware to get started; probably will begin with a laptop, our camera viewfinder HMD, and a keyboard strapped around the waist (crude, I know) or some form of home-brewed chording device. I considered using Plan 9, but since we don't plan to include a pointing device yet, and the viewfinder can only display low resolutions and in black and white, I think we'll end up going with something designed to be used 80x24 characters at a time... Linux. If somebody can present me with some good reasons to use Plan 9 instead, we can try it, but I really don't think Plan 9 actually is ideal for a wearable. John
