I think the real innovation that would allow this, though, would be defining standards for "thin client" devices (or apps, I guess) that could auto-pair with these wearables. Yes, good idea, that'd be really nice. When everything has some intelligence in it, the biggest challenge is going to be the disparate devices communicating and doing what they are good at while handing off data and network stuff to a larger device like a phone or computer. You can sort of see this stuff coming if you squint, but it's quite there yet because of concerns like battery life and weight.
