I was a lurker on ExI in those days, but the wearables group almost predated ExI-chat. <u></u><u></u></span></p>

It wasn’t good resolution, but it was good enough for grainy graphics and 640x480 resolution text, which was common in those primitive savage days. The data egg or one-handed keyboard was big then. We debated if that would be the way, or speech recognition.<u></u><u></u></span></p>
