It's getting cold and so I'm fumbling with my phone and other devices.

I like the idea of a large screen on my forearm, but I'm not sure how it would work. Maybe it would be cool?

I see some company tried in 2014 and probably didn't get anywhere (see Arubixs Portal), and there was that infamous Kickstarter too

You only need one to be cyborg eye… the other one can succumb the way nature intended… to diabetes and television.
