Evergreen's EG-MPW256CII MP3 wristwatch

So wristwatches that double as MP3 players are no great shakes these days (there are a ton of them on the streets these days) but if you really don't mind a headphone cord running up your arm Evergreen has a new line of inexpensive MP3 wristwatches that cost under a hundred bucks (they go for ¥9,505 in Japan) and come with 256MB of memory.

Looks nice! Like all my other watches, I'd just take the strap off and stuff it in my pocket (and I know I'm not the only one who does this), so no need to run cords up my arm.

What would make this awesome is if the watch face was an LCD so it could scroll the song names as they're being played. Is the battery rechargeable?

This watch looks so... nasty. Cyan and gold! I would stuff it in my pocket too :))

Andrei, so you look at one single picture of a product, on a monitor that probably isn't even calibrated, and you decide that its colors are ugly?? Something needs to be stuffed in a pocket and it ain't the watch...

If my monitor is that off, how come the Swatch watches I see on their website look so strikingly similar to the ones in the real life shop?

I think this watch is awfully tacky. I don't need 10 pictures of it to realize this.

yuck.

I don't think that anyone's monitor is un-calibrated or just bad enough to make that watch look good.

gee, you must have to wind it pretty often to keep the mp3s going ;)
