Airline Life Vests WiFi Bonus
Inflates automatically upon hitting the water, as opposed to whatever action is necessary for you to pull the little red cords.

At first I thought this was smart, not funny, but then I realized that the reason why a airline life vest is manual only. It is so it doesn't activate in cabin, trapping a wearer in a flooding cabin.

Some things are just better not having a wireless function.

Addendum: This does seem smart though for a boating vest or something to wear when flying something you can eject from. Something to consider for my 5th Ed conversion of this item here.

Larry The Lounge Lizard Suit Ensemble

All pieces are designed with static strips holding the various parts together to operate as a functional full tuxedo outfit while still allowing for fast disrobing in case of getting lucky. Think Chippendales.

Dancer
Cocktail dress: Calculate the angles of view of everyone in the room and adjusts the smart fabric so you never quite experience a 'wardrobe malfunction', despite appearing constantly on the edge of one.

That means they have at least 50 grand to drop on a deck. most of those people are going to have better things to do than bricking bras.

oddly enough, for most kites this actually *doesn't* happen. in most cases they'll actually just crash to the ground. the string is actually required for the kite to stay up in the air (certain specific designs of kite may do somewhat better, but in general even if it's shaped for gliding it will still probably crash eventually).

Football- wireless bonus allows you to know when exactly to pull the ball away so the kicker lands flat on his back.
