And interestingly enough "use" isn't always "use," maybe.
Skwraaaaaark!'s
"use" and skill requiring gear stops deployment/trading of the gear and
causes trashed gear when unable to "use" the gear.

Similarly, or not, the Yellowjacket also notes the inability to "use"
gear. (Wheeler jumps into his yellowjacket, but he finds it too cramped.
He quickly rips out his Wired Reflexes and Dermal Armor for a more comfy
flight. :) ...or maybe this is a case of holding unusable gear...
curious, no? (wasn't able to check the unoff. faq though, maybe it's
there...)

btw, someobody mentioned trading cyber gear not being in the FAQ 2.0...
it's in the rulebook. (or check the online one at www.fasa.com)
