The pair I have works a fair distance away, and has audio pick-ups so you can use it to answer the phone if you want. Even includes track forward/backward, pause and answer buttons. Definitely leaves you free to deal with stuff while working on the call. I was surprised that it could carry through nearly two rooms of my house. The various bits are becoming available. I have read (do not have the citation handy) that there is wireless VGA available, so the matching eye piece would be quite possible. Then you could just carry a unit in a messenger bag or backpack and have access to your system. Voice control is still a work in progress, but we are getting there. Given that arrangement, the old desktop paradigm might not even be the right way to go, but I am sure that the Linux community will be the first to explore such alternatives. > I could see it in a remote data center.

That can be problematic given the background noise, but it would certainly be nice with some decent noise cancellation technology. _______________________________________________ gnhlug-discuss mailing list gnhlug-discuss@mail.gnhlug.org http://mail.gnhlug.org/mailman/listinfo/gnhlug-discuss/
