Egokast video belt buckle

egokast_belt.jpg

Oh, decisions, decisions. What belt shall I wear tonight to set off my new outfit? Hmm, the traditional leather? The one with the clamp fastener or the metal buckle? I guess I'll just settle on the one with the 3" video display where I can insert an SD card and play movies just below my belly button. Perfect. This bizarre new product from Egokast is just that, a 3" screen mounted in a stainless steel case that can be attached to a belt or armband to display either full motion video or a slideshow of photos. You can insert an SD card of up to 2GB in size and put an entire movie on there if you so desire. You certainly won't have to worry about getting noticed when you're out clubbing, but you will have to worry about your video selection. My choice? Footloose.

Limited to an initial run of 100, the Egokast One (without memory card or belt) goes for $279.

Looks great as it is, but the video-thing just doesn't sinks in! I mean what good will it do to your fashinable looks!

Perspective:

Do you know when I realized it was the future?

It wasn't when I saw a pocket computer, nor when they made human clones, nor a tiny ipod filled with a thousand songs, nor Yao Ming, nor genetically engineered chimeras, nor living glow-in-the-dark bunnies.

It was when I went on this website and saw a writer blithely describe a video-screen belt buckle. Where is my hoverboard.
