Wrist Phone Launched
We were just talking about a wrist phone, and people were telling me I was crazy for thinking the idea didn't have merit. So, to show I can keep an open mind on these things, I won't scoff at the wrist phone concept (submitted here by someone anonymously) that is being launched in Japan. This one looks a little more interesting, because it looks more like a regular phone that wraps around your wrist. When you need to use it as a phone, you take it off your wrist. Still, it just feels like a novelty item to me right now. Maybe future revisions will seem more usable.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
