| "Reminds me of Leela's Wrist thingy in Futurama" ( 3/14/2006 8:31:07 PM) |
| "I would definately buy this if it had a camera" (Alex 3/15/2006 2:12:43 AM) |
| "These wrist computers also remind me of the communicators used in the first Star Trek movie (Star Trek: the Motion Picutre). Those communicators were on wrists instead of being handheld like in the original series (and later movies) or a combadge like what appeared in Star Trek: The Next Generation." ( 3/15/2006 10:06:40 AM) |
| "I have been SO waiting for something like this to be developed! I need to visit their site to find out if it offers wifi and/or bluetooth. If it does, I have to get one! (Why, yes, I *am* a geek, thanks very much!)" (metathuselah 3/15/2006 10:30:59 AM) |
| "It must be cheap and it should have CF and SD slots. Why just SD and only up to 1GB when modern PDAs allow you to even have 16GB of storage (8GB SD + 8GB CF) ?" (aredo 3/15/2006 10:37:09 AM) |
| "Have you seen these? Computers the size of a stick of gum. http://www.gumstix.com/" ( 3/15/2006 11:45:12 AM) |
| "It would be cool if it could run/use eComStation. http://www.ecomstation.com " (BigWarpGuy 3/31/2006 12:46:03 PM) |
| "I forgot to mention that Gregory Benford wrote about something pretty similar to this in his 1989 book Tides of Light - see the entry for wrist command.
Bill, Chief Technovelgist" (Bill 4/1/2006 8:52:15 PM) |
