simple BT headset, projects(into air?) movies, your PC though some remote desktop app over LTE(4G), music, whatever.
you can ask it questions(voice recognition), recognise friends, instantly bring up facebook profile with face recognition (digital cameras already have those), take/watch HD video, anything, all while walking in the street or sitting in a train, with a tiny BT headset in one ear. limitless, no implants. Perfect!

That is pretty kewl Is the software downloadable yet
