 Has anyone seen or tried one of these? 

 Seem pretty intriquing to me and should be standard issue to all HRR's!

Judging by the way I can't seem to remember to unplug my headset, I'm sure I'd be walking around looking like the Michelin Man for the rest of my life!  But at least i'd get practice reloading the jacket

 If you forget to unhook the landyard from the anchoring cable do not worry, it takes 25-35lbs of pull force to deploy the airbag system leaving enough room to minimize false inflations.

Why wouldn't this work just as well?

I have already tested that version. Two things, 1) It does not come with an expandable waist. And 2) It makes going to the bathroom pretty much impossible, especially when it's raining! Otherwise it was perfect, especially for riding in Memphis!

Oh, I'm sure I'd find a way to trip it at least once!
