I really enjoyed this. It most made me think about privacy. Although mobile technologies do not necessarily afford privacy, you're at least dealing with a small screen that you can be discrete with. The projection of information within shared spaces certainly adds 'texture' for people to base their perception of you, and the power to influence their choices (particularly when they don't have access to the device themselves). I also like the idea of relying more on recognition technologies rather than relying on rfid tags in order to get rich contextual information.
