How silly would such a sight be in real life?

Some of us can't concentrate as much as they would when there are a lot of people passing by, when hearing all sorts of chattering or are simply easily distracted by surroundings. For them, as well as for
those who want to keep absolute secret about what they're working on when they need to work on a computer, some guys have devised this wacky hood and it looked like fun since there were people interested in buying it. Now, for the next piece, things seem a bit different as we're talking about the portable version of this contraption, going by the name of the Immersion Scarf. Is it possible for someone (except for texting lovers) to become immersed in the world of the mobile phone?

In case some guy thinks about using this Immersion Scarf in conjunction with a PSP - and thus “immersion” becoming a very serious thing, this cloth tool might have a reason behind.

But could anyone imagine taking this scarf out of one of your pockets, introducing your cell or PDA in it and then put the whole thing on your head? This would look indeed a bit too much: I mean, if you're that concerned about the privacy of your text messages, why do you text in public? Or if you feel like surfing to special websites using your handheld device, why doing so in public?

We know it's only a design idea, but it proves to be so hilariously weird that we're actually trying to find some reasonable motivations one could come up with to use such a thing. Having found none reasonable enough yet, I beg of you to think upon this matter, too.

We are just a few, but there are many of you, Softpedia users, out there.

Yep, that's the way to text. And lose the bus.
