Wait Until You See This!

This is supposed to be on the market next year. It's absolutely remarkable...coolest thing I ever saw. I bet you lose a lot of skin making copies though. Developed in Israel. QVC, get thee to the electronics fair.

I find it weird. Looks almost robotic.

Kind of cool. I visited their site and they are asking for donations to make these. Then when they are made, they will give you whatever you donated off the price of their bracelet. They will be $300 or if you preorder one now, they are $250. However, it sounds like to me they aren't even making them yet. I wouldn't want to donate in case they pocket the money and they never go into production. I would never preorder under these conditions either.

It looks kind of like a novelty to me. I bet you can't see the sceen (on your arm) in the sun either.

I can see people wanting these, especially kids.

It would not work if you have hairy arms.

The Distributor page on their site says they were supposed to have a completed model, beyond a prototype, before the end of 2015. In a conference earlier this year, they said they're still working on improving the prototype. Oh, and when someone asks about battery life, the guy says he expects battery life will be 2.5 hours if someone is really using it.

So.... I think they've got a long way to go before QVC or anyone else places a large order for these. There's no way I'm spending $300 on a smartphone/tablet I can only use 2.5 hours a day without charging.

But I'm glad they're working on this and I think it has a lot of potential.
