After a hard day of painting and general home maintenence I need a good, probing shoulder and neck massage, but my partner is overseas. Lucky she took her VR sensor kit and laptop with her.

At the pre-arranged time, I settle into place in front of my PC and log in to the ‘net. I don the heavy SOIP Massage Mantle ® and my partner and I enjoy the sight and sound of each other as well as the comforting, virtual touch that the system enables.

I find this somehow more disturbing than phone sex.

Actually, a Bulgarian guy named Smed hacked into your Massage Mantle about 6 weeks ago. Didn't you notice the heavy mustache?
