Do those things have bluetooth headsets or do you have to use the plug in kind? because...how the heck does she use it for its primary function with the plugs in? Most people swing their arms when they move, and the wire isn't that long... so....

I think this iWatch thing is over discussed. It's not really that funny or interesting anymore :rolleyes:

She is only 5'2" and she has shorter arms then me. She could jog with the ear buds in... But also, I think the point is it's a good place to keep the nano when your not using for music... But that is a personal preference. She picked hers up at www.watchmynano.com. Does anybody else have any pics of nano watches.?

19 $ for some uncomfy straps? How dare you. The colors do not even match.

I agree this is a little gimmicky *looks at his arm span* and would never work without some decent studio headphones with a gigantic cable. :D

I know there are other forums with photos of nano watches but they are mostly discussion - not very many photos.

What is the advantage of this vs. wearing it clipped to any other part of your body? It looks bulky and awkward, and doesn't the screen shut-off or wear down the battery rediculously at a usable brightness? It seems it would work much better to just use the free clip on your waist and glance down at it for the time. This way, you wouldn't have to constantly worry about your earbuds coming out or the screen accumulating scratches from surfaces. This is just silly...you could buy an OK watch itself for $19...

Now, an ipod touch 3rdG watch!... We would finally having a do-it-all wrist communicator like Futurama...

add bt and you have no issue with earbuds coming out. yes the screen shuts off, why would you want it on?

i wouldn't own a 19 watch much less wear one

If you are asking about the functionality of using the iPod function while it's on a wrist, you're a dimwit. That's not the point of it when used as a watch.

OMG, it looks so awsome! But I'm so wonder how to control it when you put the earphone on?

$150-$180 is actually reasonably inexpensive for a watch.

Timex $15-50
Fossil $75-140
Nano $150-180
Seiko Kinetic $250-500
Many other fine watches $400-800+
Tag Heuer $1500-$3500
Rolex - let's not go there.

So except for something with a rubber strap from Walmart, or the like, as far as watches go, a Nano is not a very expensive watch. However, it doesn't have a sapphire face or otherwise is built to withstand being on your wrist and the abuse it may take there.

I think it looks cool, when they first announced them I wanted to get one and a simple black strap

Ahh hey how cool, they took NATO watch-straps and adapted them for nanos.

Actually those NATO watchstraps are rather comfortable. I have one on my Traser
