    This is a simple phone, not a smart phone people. There are still folks out there who just want to use a phone to make calls, not watch videos and play games. That said, why doesn't someone just form-fit a phone as a bluetooth key fob that, say, could also be used for car and home keyless entry. (Or just put one in a Star Trek-like decorative communicator medallion one pins to clothing).

    If this form factor really takes off, people will start looking at their wrists to tell the time again.

    I've actually noticed more people looking at their wrist from habbit, but not actually having a watch.

    I've been waiting to see where this form factor would go. From the "watch" side -- deployant clasp, nice leather band, curvature to fit a wrist -- all very nice. Memory seems too low to really put much video on it, and the screen seems pretty small to watch anything (no pun intended), but maybe this is a start, more than the endpoint of the wristphone. I'd be inclined to give up a pocket-carried phone for a wristphone if the feature set, from factor, and display were to my liking. I'll be interested in seeing where things go from here.
