I had liked the look of it, as I’ve always liked slim watches. But my initial reading up on it didn’t indicate a watch function, and it’s very nature means that it needs regular recharging. (Still, recharging from a computer should make synchronizing a clock very straightforward.)

I need one of these, but would like it to be a bit more stylish and feminine. I never hear my phone ring since it’s always in my purse, diaper bag or laptop bag, so I’ve wanted something like this for a while, but I wouldn’t want to wear that on my wrist.

half the price. also, this is a item that basically begs for a bluetooth handsfree to go with it ;)

Does it double as a watch, too? (would seem like an obvious feature, no?)

That said, I really wonder how humanity ever managed to survive before the ever-present cell phone was invented.

I looked for a “Mr. T Edition” but no such luck. ;)

Do they do these with your name on them and in chunky gold? That would make it perfect.

It’s a great idea for a device, and I’m particularly impressed by the “link loss” feature that alerts you if you’re separated from your phone. But it looks terrible and is not nearly as full-featured as the Sony Ericsson Bluetooth watch, which is much more attractive and offers the additional ability to control the music features on a phone and show a display of what music track is playing. Of course the SE MBW-150 is a lot more expensive at around $250 street.

I agree with Pam that I find limited value in such a device if it does not have the ablity to take a call.

Although I have ipods I do not have an iphone, so I have put a few ‘gym’ tracks on the blackberry and I use a BT headset when I excersise. I screen quite simply by assigning one ring tone to Friends/Family, one to important work people and the third for everyone else.

For the time that I need it, this works well enough.

Looks a little too fem, for me.

Why not just make it look, and act, like a nice watch?
