The next RAZR

Moto's RAZR amazed the world with its ridiculous thinness and overall sleek design. You could slip it into the pocket of your ultra-low-rise jeans or even the shirt pocket of your popped-collar polo and no-one would notice. And yet it had all the features you really wanted.

We've done ultra-thin for years now and it is wearing t... you get it. Instead, the hot new thing is to have a large rounded touchscreen computer in your pocket, which also happens to be a cellphone. Unless you are one of the many people who still like thin, light, and unobtrusive.

And for you is the watchphone. Though it will be initially targeted at the larger-wristed half of the population, the watchphone is the ultimate evolution in small, light, unobtrusive, etc etc.

Of course, the downside is really that you have to pair it with a bluetooth headset to talk, which could become a pain in the ass if you dont like wandering around looking like you talk to spirits, or your friends get really tired of never knowing whether you are talking to them or talking on the phone.

We'll have to see how this one plays out in the marketplace - specifically there is no real way to send a text (so, no, I will not be getting one), so it might be a device which is behind its times, but I still like the idea of smaller and more integrated/less obtrusive electronics.
