Unfortunately I cant stand anything to do with ipods, itunes or ipads.....so I'll pass!

Good idea though!

What's the battery like on the nano? Can the screen actually be on all day without it running out. It'd suck if you had to touch the screen to turn it on and see the time.

Plus, as the post above states, you'd need some wireless headphones (or send the wire up your arm to your shoulder). Last time I checked, wireless headphones had a sizeable transmitter station, and in-ear receivers are very expensive (the nano does not support bluetooth).

So, as you say... a watch for the future; once the supporting tech catches up in order to actually make it usable rather than just cool.

I stopped wearing a watch a good few years ago when everything I owned started coming with an in-built clock. I guess i use a button to turn a screen on to find out the time as it is, I don't see that being that much of a problem.

Don't know about using the iPod as well. Running the headphones up your arm would be annoying.

I stopped wearing a watch in 2003. I like to think that it's still 2003.

A watch with an ipod in it?
