Would you watch a full movie on your wrist?

by Sherry on April 4th, 2008

In theory, this is a neat little gadget that could help you pass the time in an airport terminal, on a train, or pretty much anywhere. It’s a Home Theater Watch.

While it functions as any regular watch does, it also has 2 GB of storage space where you can transfer a movie (legally acquired, please!). Watch a movie right on your wrist! Instead of films, you can also use that space for MP3s or JPG images.

It’s not clear how the audio works, whether it has earphones, which I would hope since that would otherwise irritate people around you.

I’m not sure I would use this. I’ve found my cellphone to have a screen that’s too small for truly enjoy video, and it’s larger than this watch - the watch screen is 1.2 inches in size, but it does come with 260K color display capabilities.

Would you watch a movie on a watch? The one thing I do love about it is that it’s so Bond-esque.

Try one out for $119.
