More Wristphones
I'll admit that I didn't necessarily see the benefit of the wristphone when they were first announced. While I did like the idea of not having to worry about where to carry your phone, there just seemed to be too many other issues with moving the phone to your wrist. However, I seem to be in the minority on this one, and everyone keeps insisting that watch phones are a great idea. So, it should be no surprise to hear of yet another wristphone, this time coming out of China. This one sounds pretty advanced, as it has a color screen, a keyboard, and a built-in camera. The phone works via earpiece and (this is creative), they've made the earpiece work like a ring, so you don't have to worry about carry that either (though, I wonder about how dirty a "ring" might get before you stick it in your ear).
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.
