P-ISM :

A Pen-style Personal Networking Gadget Package

It seems that information terminals are infinitely getting smaller. However, we will continue to manipulate them with our hands for now. We have visualized the connection between the latest technology and the human, in a form of a pen. P-ISM is a gadget package including five functions: a pen-style cellular phone with a handwriting data input function, virtual keyboard, a very small projector, camera scanner, and personal ID key with cashless pass function. P-ISMs are connected with one another through short-range wireless technology. The whole set is also connected to the Internet through the cellular phone function. This personal gadget in a minimalistic pen style enables the ultimate ubiquitous computing.

This was shown I think 4 months ago. I wish they would go into production.. If they did I would have sold my virtual keyboard that I own now and order the P-ISM.

amazing, if things keeping going on like this mankind may jump the evolutionary charts again, to think computers are less than 100 years old, about 60. Truly remarkable!
