First off, I love your idea and product! About a year ago I spent a pretty large amount of money trying to build a prototype of something similar to your idea. Eventually the technical prowess it required forced me to throw in the towel, but since you've clearly got the means to put it all together, I figured I'd just drop off my idea as a suggestion for you.

My concept was to hyper-simplify the watch idea, per say. I pictured one of those 'Power Balance' or 'Livestrong' bracelets, except it would have no screen of any kind. Instead, it would have a few LED lights that would indicate when your phone had missed a text message, phone call, email etc. The plan was to keep it really simple and really clean looking, with nothing but a few indicator lights.

I found your product from a Hacker News post, so I'm sure you're avid hackers yourself. That being said, I'm not going to post all of the usability and marketability info I had created. I have no doubt you can use your imagination and see how it would be useful, and who knows, maybe one day I can get the bluetooth wristband I hoped to make.

I'd love this watch, but I live in Hungary and there's no shipping. (If it would be, i think it would be a bit expensive. Central Europe is a bit far, and there is the tax... )


I know, that one button is enough for a lot of thing, but more wouldn't be better?
I feel it's a bit limited. (Ohh, and 32kB is enough space? :S )

For example there is the Sony Ericsson LiveView. It has a lot of buttons and features but no internal programmable memory, so it's only a bluetooth "photo frame".
(Of course it have disadvantages for example it wouldn't work whitout the phone... )


Keep it up, but for now i think im going to buy a SE LiveView, because it's olny 14 386 HUF (~74$ ) and it's available here.... (Or se mbw-150. )
(If inPulse would be available here or it would be a bit cheaper... Hmm, i'll wait, until then there's the simulator for me! )

So keep it up, and don't stop the develop!
