I'd be so into one, not because I need it, I have a watch I wear regularly and I carry a cell phone but it's just so geektastic!

In fact, they just had a design contest to help them come up with forward-thinking watch ideas.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://dvice.com/archives/2008/07/thumbnail_watch.php">This Nail Watch entry is, well, interesting. It's designed to slip over your thumbnail, letting you tell the time just by glancing down at your hand.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://dvice.com/archives/2008/07/thumbnail_watch.php">You can light it up or change the mode by pressing down on the end of your thumbnail. I'm not sure what magical technologies would have to be used to create this, nor do I know how it stays on your thumbnail, but I do know that this is certainly unlike any watch I've ever seen. Whether or not it'll ever actually exist is another question entirely.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/9D83E43F-E2A0-4247-97A9-3ADE58931A80/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
