First comment!
Looks quite nice actually, I wouldn't be ashamed to wear it, might actually save me some hassle when travelling in other peoples cars and wanting to share my music collection ;)
I too, don't think this watch looks too bad or nerdy (unlike those cell phone watches). It could in fact be rather handy since you get all the stuff in a small wearable package. My buddy has an older version of this and it's pretty cool actually. I hate how Engadget craps on anything that's no an iINSERTWORDHERE product.
Yea me too I would wear it with pride...
Especially if I spent $125 on it.
still rubbery and bulky.. the fm radio is cool, but who wants a rubber band or to listen to FM radio when broadcasting "American Gangster" on their mp4 watch while in the club?
This stainless steel mp4 watch did the trick for me and got it in like 7 days...

When I was a kid, I used to wear one of these super chunky watches to school. It was made my Casio, and it took very small black and white digital pictures and video. My motivation was mostly James Bond, but I can't say that I didn't think about lending it to a friend that happened to be a girl, that happened to have first hour PE. I was 12-ish though, so I can't say I ever had the cajones for that. Still it was fun, but in this day and age where the "oooOoOoOo" factor is completely absent from something like this, you are better off not even thinking about wearing it.
Does it come in brown? If it did, it would soooooooo match my Zune.
No bluetooth...otherwise I would get it.
BT would make this a great running thing-ama-jig...
is it water proof?
If waterproof, I'd wear one but not as a time piece. More like audio/video jewelry.
The same as the kind of clothing which will have moving pictures on it. Very uber-geek and fun for the youth.
This would look pretty good in a Battle Dress Uniform (Military BDU) Most of us are lamer geeks anyways so why the hell not!?
Battery life? does the clock still work if there is no battery?
I LIKE IT.
typically on Engadget I see ugly watches for huge prices or earphones that cost upwards of $199.
This is a nice product which I would consider buying at that price... but, the downside is it doesn't claim to have BLUETOOTH A2DP. I can't realisticly run a wire down my arm.
4GB is fantastic.
Comes with a "built-in Li-ion"?!?!
Jesus Christ, GET IN THE CAR!!!
Come in, Lambert.
Damnit, my OPSAT's internal memory is full...too much U2 concert video...
i still like the iriver s10 the best of all these. just wish it was available here!
When the open os in this watches?
not exactlu Linux but open source.
please ;)
I have one of the older models (in orange :-) I love orange.
The one dissappointment is that the clock alone runs the battery dead in just under 1 day. (I liked pausing it so the clock would stay on as it looks really nice :-)
ITs also not that big. Well on gigantic paws like mine it is not big and I still had to make my own "hole" to allow it to wrap around my wrists :-)
There is a better version out with bluetooth and 4GB. The bluetooth will make it just SO much easier in the gym. Still a pity that it doesn't have FM. I saw it on http://www.mp3plusmore.com/product/404 and a bit more expensive on http://www.dhgate.com/productdetail_ff8080811781922001178881ecca6c73_kbXA0IHdhdGNo_c.html
