For civilian uses will come "Smart Clothing."

Or "networked clothing," that will have various devices networked within a vest or jacket and allow more readily reachable controls and no doubt functions that we have not yet envisioned. This could run the gambit from built in earphones to controls to flexible displays to health sensors... all powered by the clothing itself, thus relieving the wearer of the obligation to plug into charge.

Imagine this stuff as the electronic equivalent of a self winding watch.

Of course all of this may be a bit too gizmo techo for some.... but then look where the phone has gone in a few years with the introduction of the iphone.
