Senseboard develops and manufactures a wearable
data entry platform to enable users of mobile
communications systems to effectively input
text or data in practically any environment.

And don't forget the 21" monitor.

That's achievable - eyeglass monitors or Head mounted displays

And a full keyboard and a mouse.

Talking about strange keyboards, I was flying with SAS yesterday, and in their in-flight magazine (I was dead bored) they had an article about senseboard
Kinda cool actully... and as ergonomical as you make it :)
Typing in thin air while wearing silver clothes is what will do in the future anyways, so why fight it?

Not sure I get you completely, but you might be interested in something like this when it comes out.

..have a Senseboard..

I don't know anyone that can write as fast as someone types, unless the person typing is a typing newbie.

How about a keyboard like this that can be projected onto any surface.

Or perhaps the senseboard?

I think these are much more plausible than a pen. Perhaps a pen with voice recognition would be faster...

I use a wacom tablet (which uses a pen) to play Unreal Tournament. You can place your shots much more accurately.

I don't know, might be the huge pencil sharpener looking projector but, I like the keyboard talked about on this story much better than this new one.

Who needs a PocketPC or Palm when you can just take your whole computer with you?

The virtual keyboard "Senseboard" was really cool. It won best technology award. See here
