sounds like a big ass marketing gag to promote their glasses....I mean, a datacenter on a ship? the bandwidth would be pretty limited because the backbone connection would have to be done wireless....but then again: they surely would have the bucks to make even that work, even if it takes an enormous hassle hardware-wise.

erm...but wait: maybe it's simply underwater streetview? :lol:
