Ipod nano watch...you getting one?

Who will be getting an Ipod Nano because it looks cool as a watch with aftermarket bracelet?

Anyone has links of other bracelet manufacturer please post it here.

nano watches

I've seen a few of these watches, mostly younger owners. They have a modern watch look. a bit square-ish. The only problem I see is that you have to plug in your nano watch to keep it working...

I'm already plugging in iPhone at work all day, I don't want another device that requires batteries...

Will they have Bluetooth? It would be cool if my watch could act as a caller ID or could show texts so I wouldn't have to pull my phone out of my pocket...

I like the concept, we will see much more of it in the years ahead, but it is not for me.

I've had one for over 8 months. I get more compliments on it than any other watch.

Bruno

How big do you think it really is in real life? I have only seen these in pics but not in person but it looks HUGE in wrist pics I have seen. How would you compare its size (nano + watch case bracket) to a Panerai, do you reckon its too big and thick as a watch?

I don't think it has bluetooth but that would be a neat feature to have.

It's comfortable for me but I have a 7.5 inch wrist. It's much lighter than my Pam 111 and just as easy to wear. I have the rubbah strap btw.

Thanks Bruno I have a 7 inch wrist and imagine I will end up looking like a 5 year old kid with a big over sized plastic space watch on the wrist

I got a simple rubber version. Sadly this is what gets the most comments on my wrist - sign of the times I guess.

I reckon that would be the standby time listed for the nano on Apple's site, I think its 12 hrs.
