Interesting concept but it doesn't look like it would be very comfortable.

Really like the concept, amazed it has not been thought of before.

Good idea but it seems a bit odd limiting yourself to the number of functions you can have at any one time - in guessing the band is made up of about 8 blocks, so you're limited to that many functions? I'd find that annoying.

Leatherman have a similar concept:

Although not smart, you choose the tools you want and these make up the bracelet.

Why not just a watch which does everything? What's the need to limit functionality?

For all the spiel at the start about us all being individual, with this watch everyone ends up with a near identical looking product, that just essentially has different apps downloaded for each person. The only real difference being, versus say an iPhone, that the number of apps you can download are limited to the number of blocks used - rather than an iPhone which could store & run all of those apps.

From my understanding, all it basically does is take something which does everything, and reduce how many things it can do.
