Thanks to Bluetooth, we hardly hold our cellphones anyway so it makes sense that the next logical step is to wear our phones. Though there are phone/watch hybrids on the market, the 'Thrifty Watch Phone' combines everything you'll ever need (other than nourishment) on one handy, wrist-mounted device.
The Thrifty Watch Phone has all the goodies of your regular, bulky smartphone including a media player, video recorder, and MP3 capabilities. You better get more nimble with those fingers though, as this fine piece of tech jewelry features a 1.3 inch touch screen.
The Thrifty Watch Phone does come (obviously) with Bluetooth capabilities so you can look even more like a madman when you are screaming at your wrist.
