Whoa Whoa, first off, this is both good and bad, but any step that brings me closer to Inspector Gadget is a good one. Now all I need is a videophone dog collar… and a dog that can use one
If these watches become widely used, I bet you’d see a lot of drivers hunched forward, talking to their wrist, while steering, shaving/putting on makeup, and eating their breakfast.
Does it count as inventing when they rip stuff off from 60’s TV shows?
Actually, Dick Tracy had one of these, and he first appeared in 1931.
That would be cool, but I’m eagerly awaiting a virtual keyboard.
