On-body networking: iPhone + iWatch + AirPods

Heads-up display: Google Glass is a proof of concept and then there is https://www.magicleap.com

Virtual keyboard and pointer: https://www.myo.com/

Speech-to-text interface: Not that useful for mobile, imho. Seems to work at home (Alexa, etc).

On-body networking: modular CPU/RAM, storage, radio, modem, router, battery, AR headset, battery, etc

Heads-up display: Google Glass was weird. The focus was on "gargoyle" stuff, not on AR. The display needs to integrate with and enhance reality. Not a small area in a corner.

Speech-to-text interface: That works very well for me. For short messages, anyway. Proofreading and editing is essential, however. To avoid embarrassment and confusion.

Magic Leap is nowhere near general availability.
