Modular Mobile Computing with Small Virtual Clusters

Imagine your PAN: bluetooth headphones for stereo audio and mic, thin and lightweight display (perhaps flexible) for the visual interface and a wireless backbone to connect it all to the Small Virtual Cluster (SVC) in your pocket/purse/backpack for the computing.

The computing brick contains all the feature hardware and energy while the headphones and screen contain just enough processing with just enough energy. This would make the actual interface components smaller, thinner and lighter while allowing for computing power that actually scales.
