I love to watch but my arm is getting tired

The folks at the MIT Advertising Lab point us to where television, cell phones, and french chic may be headed. They write:

"France Telecom's wireless unit, Orange SA, will soon roll out a new mobile video service that will let cellular phone subscribers view TV, movies, photos and broadband Internet content with a big screen viewing effect using Kopin-enabled [head mounted displays]."

I include it here because every once in a while we should look at cool gadgets worn by french chic models dressed in black.

However, I am trying to wrap my head around (oops, poor choice of phrase I suppose) exactly what the target market is here. Perhaps Parisians who want to be somewhere besides their living room; are still within a cell phone service area; and have nothing else happening around them so they watch TV?

All I know is that if the U.S. had these things, we could go to a baseball game and watch a movie instead.
