How about a touchscreen watch phone that does video, voice and audio ala Dick Tracy? As nerdy as it sounds, I’d take one.

This pup goes quad-band GSM while packing a 1.5-inch touchscreen with itty bitty, built-in stylus; Bluetooth 2.0; and all the 120 x 160 pixel MP4 video (or MP3/AAC audio) you can pack into its 128MB of storage. The watch weights just 60-grams and should hold-up to about 200 minutes of talk or 80 hours standby before needing a USB recharge.
 
That thing's gotta be god-awful expensive. :(
But damn, if I had a spare, ooooh... $1100 or so, I'd get one. :cool:
 
Wow this actually brought back memorys. I really had a Dick Tracy when that came out. That was the coolest thing next to sliced butter.
 
goddamn it. they would finally make a cell phone I would like, I'm a geek not a nerd but I'll still take one anyways :D :D
 
This brought back sweet memories...I remember the first geek thing that I ever asked my parents for was a Dick Tracy-like phone watch for Christmas :). Got a bike instead...
 
You young wiper-snappers! I remember cutting out cereal tops to get my Dick Tracy watch. During the B&W half hour Dick Tracy TV program they would have you turn the dial on the watch to find the secret word for the day.
 
I just wonder on how the call quality is. Is the reception good and what not. Looks cool tho. Wonder what they will come up with in 5 years.......
