I've seen the future and it is now! Well, not exactly. Behold the first generation wrist watch television. The VTV-101 with battery pack from NHJ about $200US.Of course, it's not what it looks like. The headphones (included) act as the antenna. It has no WiFi, so it is only useful for watching over-the-air broadcast television. But, you know what's next.
This may not be the hot gift this holiday season, but the price point tells us something about the future. This is inexpensive by any standards. A 1.5 inch LCD display with a TV Tuner, 3 hour battery and docking station with a street price of under $200 speaks volumes about the next generation of these devices.
Security nuts can use them with their closed-circuit systems. New Moms can wear it like a necklace and use it as a baby monitor. Small is cool and useful, so start thinking about gaming, interactive wearable television and true 2 screen ETV with your wrist watch and your cell phone. The world may be getting smaller, but this stuff can make your brain explode.
