"Market Leader?"

Is there enough of an interactive textiles market in place to identify a market leader? Since only a handfull of companies actually have a product "on shelves" and high degree of segmentation it can be like comparing apples and oranges...Even still, it could be fun to look at...


Is it Textronics?



Textronics is among a small group of companies that has a total product solution that can be bought currently (sports bra and running shirt for HR monitoring).


Is it Eleksen?


The component supplier is realizing a fair amount of success in supplying interfaces for iPod-related products. Are they the "foot in the door" for our community or will new interfaces such as the iPhone make such products a "fad?"

What do you think? Who am I leaving out?
