eHolster!I don't need the whole harness action (although there's a "lets play geek-spy" little kid inside me that wants it), but the cross draw eBeltSnap would totally work for me.

Very goofy and lame. Might as well tattoo "I'm a geek and I can't help myself around gadgets and flashy light things!"

The thing that annoys me about that site is they're so transparently pandering to young geek males by using a chesty woman to demonstrate the product. Please. It gives me the creeps like seeing scantily clad women hawking java servers at a trade show. yuck.

Did I miss something? Are pockets no longer sewn into garments. I swear the last pair o' pants I bought had at least 3.

Matt, there is nothing wrong with pandering.

Aw c'mon Matt - get that Matrix phone in one holster, your blogger-enabled Palm VII in the other, a pair of wraparound shades and a sharkskin suit... you... uh... okay, you'd still be a geek - but that's a big market.

Mick, I'd put my cell in my pants pockets, but every time I get pandered to, I end up dialing Brazil.

Hands free dialing INDEED!

I tend to want to carry my PalmIII, at least one cell phone (sometimes, sadly, two-- one being for work, one for home, but I hope to merge those soon), and a wallet most of the time. Plus keys/keycards. I hate schlepping a purse around (especially at work). I don't always have pants pockets to work with and if I do, sometimes there isn't enough space or it's just plain uncomfortable.

So I kinda like this eholster idea. It's that or a giant fanny pack or big vests with big pockets . . .
