We’ll spare you the “these boots were made for walking” line, but the Seven Mile Boots are designed to stroll around in and out of open wireless networks, and they are kind of Sinatra-style hot (that’s Nancy not Frank). The boots have a wireless network, a microprocessor, sensors, amps and a speaker, and enable the user to listen to chat rooms with audio by automatically logging-in with the name “sevenmileboots”. The boots are going to be on exhibit at the Austrian Ars Electronica Festival next week.
