@TonyTriple: Ha. They would probably start beating you with billyclubs before you even got up to the counter.

Less dog poop on bottom, more taxi/bus/bike messenger tire on top.

...just don't get on an airplane with these things on. As a matter of fact, don't even go near an airport all wearing these.

Close, but no cigar. This is an ideal application for haptic feedback rather than flashing LEDs.

You don't need to tell the world that you're sniffing for wifi -- and you sure don't need to wear something that looks more like some kind of cheezy up-skirt camera than a business shoe.
