is that the new “nerd”?

Version 1.x of the sport jackets has been pockets sewn onto the jacket by the manufacturer using the original cloth type (www.segal.org/tablet/photo/). We did suggests reinforcing the jacket at the time of 1.0, but this is not the sort of thing that happens until there is a wider market.

I’ve been through many an airport with the EHolster. When all I have to do is take off the holster and drop it in the plastic container and move on, I couldn’t be happier, while the other guy is going through his pockets, going through the Scanner, back to the line, emptying more pockets, back thru the scanner and finally the Hand Scanner.

I guess I get away wearing the holster because I can wear it confidently, because I really could care less about what the meek of the earth may think about something as ridiculous as how I choose to carry my cell phone and pocket computer. But that’s just me, hopefully the others will find that with maturity also will come a degree of confidence. And another thing, fortunately I do not need to have my wife’s approval in order to wear something.

I could continue, but for the sake of respect got James and Kevin and the more mature readers, I will refrain from entering into a childish exchange of words, especially when the other side may attempt to enter the exchange ill equipped.

BTW, I also have a Scott E Vest, the same model that was distributed to our Presidents Secret Service Protection Detail. I am pretty sure those guys do not need their wife’s approval to wear those either.

If you feel silly wearing one, or don’t like the idea don’t wear one. But why the implication of physical violence? Is anyone really that threatened by a shoulder holster for a cell phone?

This model looks a little sturdier strap-wise…mine had 2 larger pockets and held devices more close to armpit…I like this hanging lower.

Problem with belt clips is getting in and out of chairs can cause the things to snag or worse pop off.

However, if she ever caught me wearing this thing, I think she may divorce me, and I don’t know that I’d blame her.

Anyone who is a fan of the BBC version of the Office can remember Gareth Keenan taking off his jacket to show his cell phone holster can appreciate how ridiculous the concept of wearing that would be.

I would love to see some Poindexter like Ron go through airport security with that bra/phone holder on.

They make a variety of attractive and very functional pieces of apparel that allow you to carry a lot of mobile devices without looking like a total tool, as with the holster.
