[OFB Cafe] Fwd: Nail Watch...

[Rick Bowers]

This came to me from another mailing list. I've always known 
electronics would continue to shrink in size. If this is real, it's 
pretty interesting.

   This  came  to  me  from  another  mailing  list.  I've  always  known
   electronics  would  continue  to shrink in size. If this is real, it's
   pretty interesting.

              The Timex Nail Watch: Get the Time on Your nails

                           www.FunAndFunOnly.net

    We have seen many different types of futuristic watches with strange
     shapes and design but none so unique as this. Now lets welcome the
    Nail watch, that can be worn on the thumb. You may have never seen a
     watch that can be worn on the thumb but times are going to change
    thanks to Timex. Timex, in collaboration with Core77, held a global
   design competition called 2154: the future of time design. So what we
      are seeing here is the TX54 concept which was a runner up there.


                           www.FunAndFunOnly.net

    Thanks to a translucent body, the design blends seamlessly with the
      nail while a selection of text color options and a glow feature
   activating on command make it supremely functional as well. Press the
   end of your thumbnail, and the watch will light up for you. A perfect
    blend of appearance, user interface, and technology, the nail watch
    passes most standards of modern design with flying colors thanks to
   its functional and minimalist appeal. The watch looks stylish and chic
   and has a touch of Geeky style as well. The downside of this watch is
   that it is disposable. So with so many stylish watched being available
     now, it will be hard for it to survive in the market. Though it is
    quite innovative with a minimalist design, but it won't last long on
                                your finger.

   No details about the availability or the price of this watch has been
   released by Timex. But since it is tiny and disposable, I don't expect
                           the price to be high.
