These days most of us already pretty much have mobile computing systems with us whenever we leave the house in the form of iPhones, etc. Pico projectors give you the screen size you need to be effective at more tasks than a smartphone screen can give you. I like the wearable displays from Microvision and the Skinput that Microsoft is working on looks good too. I think wearable computers are the way to go.

I think the computers that follow this logic will be completely invisible until needed and will serve us all better within our lives.

Hopefully we'll both see some fantastic "hands on" augmented devices to amplify our hacking fun.
