PANiQ’s clothing line lets you control your toys

Even us geeks have to dress sharp. PANiQ has introduced its line of clothing that lets you create a personal area network. Their clothing puts a touchpad on fabric. Adding a dongle to an iPod or other device allows you to control it using the clothing’s built in touchpad.
What other devices will you be able to control? Cell phones, iPhones, iPods, and PANiQ’s own walkie-talkie and AM/FM radio devices. The walkie-talkie and radio will be available in the spring.
The Bluetooth controllers for phones cost $79.99. The iPod controller is only $19.99. The actual clothing is more expensive. A hoodie goes for $230-$240 and is available for preorder. Jackets cost $250 and are available now.

Well done, QIO Systems, you just thwarted my efforts to build a brand. Very soon, Google is going to get flooded by news posts, blog posts and shop sites, and something that used to be a clean result list of about 10 pages full of references to my work becomes a pile of ####.
Everybody who hears about my music will now go “ah, like those jackets?”. The T-Shirts that I have sold will now become some kind of stupid advertising billboards for an iPod accessory.
Now what do I do?
