Picking where Google left off teasing us is Motorola with their pretty intelligent and actually working wearable computer, the HC-1.

Other note-worthy tech on board? an energy saving Dual-Core processor, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity and a 9-axis head-tracking accelerometer.
Get it: R50 000 – R65 000
