Why doesn’t someone do for the eyes what headphones do for the ears. In today’s Wall Street Journal there’s a story about people frustrated with surfing the Web on small handheld devices who want something bigger but not so big as a laptop, which is “inconvenient to whip out in a restaurant.”
So, why not some sort of magnifier or something you can put on your eyes or some sort of virtualization to make the smaller screen you can carry in your jeans pocket seem bigger when you look at it? And some sort of correlation for the hands, so you can move your fingers a normal amount for mousing and not have it swipe the cursor off the screen? Or, perhaps some sort of foldable screen you can flip out to make much bigger than it was in your pocket?
