i was recently watching cnn when they showed a demonstration of the new 'adidas 1', a shoe with a magnetic sensor and processor that helps adjust the heel cushion to your stance and stride

it has a 20mhz processor which can operate for 100 hours before each battery dies


pretty spiffy . . . now we see people with computers in their shoe and hands . . .



oh btw . . . price tag - $250 / pair

Costs them $20 MAX to make.



Posted by: koldapu

yeah, they probably took a processor out of an old 80s machine and stuck it into the shoe . . .

i wonder if you can overclock it though . . . maybe to . . . 25 mhz?!

lol
