Wearable tech just CAN'T get real!

Ready for action in the morning use to mean a glance in the mirror, checking appearance and reading the newspaper to make sure the brain is powered up.

Nowadays i need also to make sure that my two smartphones, my iPad, my laptop and my Pebble got power. Soon i must make sure that also my glasses, my shirt, my shoes, my bag, my ring and my bloody underpants are fully charged.

This is why wearable tech cant get real - yet.

Innovators, get on it - we need Nobel Prize class new electronics - or wearable will stay as just a bubble!

I think that generating electricity from body heat is the answer.
