Ronin Posted September 13, 2010 Report Share Posted September 13, 2010 Well, even though I use many Apple products, I am not sure how I feel about this, actually short of using it for fitness, I hate it. Lets hope Apple doesn't create something akin to the Quartz Revolution of yesterday. Your thoughts? Apple spawns new accessory line: nano watch straps by Dave Caolo (RSS feed) on Sep 13th 2010 at 12:00PM The success of the iPods, iPhone and iPad have been a boon for Apple and accessory makers. Shortly after each product's introduction, a small but highly competitive cottage industry of cases, sleeves, stands and so on emerges. Now, the new iPod nano's unique design has many manufacturers thinking the same thing: wristwatch. The nano is small, light, square-ish and features a touch screen. When popped into a strap accessory like the Linq by Incipio, it looks good! The Linq will be available in five colors when released (grey, black, pink, blue and white), though a release date and pricing information are unavailable as of this writing. It looks nice and the iPod seems well-protected, but I wouldn't want a wire going from my wrist to my ears all day. But that's just me.

scottosaurus Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Blah. A watch with headphones attached would just look ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lhooq Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 I plan on surgically embedding my Nano in the back of my hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TwoTone Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 Actually I think it's pretty slick... I have the original Nano, and it gets used 5 days a week at the gym... I clip it on my sweat pants pocket... Think I'm gonna pick up the new one along with a strap for my forearm - assuming they come in 21'... Apple products are pretty f***ing cool as of late... My MacBook Pro, Nano, and iPhone get a hell of a lot of use [daily]... Double T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 What would be awesome is if Apple comes out with "Mini Apps" for the Nano so that you could download different watch faces Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cougaree Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 How fast is the second hand go? 28.8? I wonder how battery life is like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nakortheblue Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 What would be awesome is if Apple comes out with "Mini Apps" for the Nano so that you could download different watch faces That would be field day for the B&R litigation because that's the first gen watch face that will be jailbroken and e-repped.

redwatch Posted September 14, 2010 Report Share Posted September 14, 2010 That's exacly what I was thinking! In fact, if B&R was smart, they would come up with a case/strap that looks like a BR-03 with an App for the dial face! Now there's something I would buy in a heartbeat!
