Flash drive equipped watch lets you play secret agent

USBwatch.jpg

James Bond always has the coolest toys, and I can just picture a scenario where he defuses some deadly situation by downloading secret codes from the hidden flash drive in this watch. The 4 GB USB memory card slips neatly into a slot on the side of the case, defying all but the most meticulous body searches. While 50 bucks for 4GB might seem like a costly way to play secret agent given today's flash memory prices, by watch standards this actually looks like a pretty good deal.

So.... does the watch do anything OTHER than HOLD the memory card??? I mean... yeah so it'd be cool to be able to carry a flash card on your person at all times... but... I mean you could carry a USB key... or get a $0.05 case to keep it in your wallet... (or purse)

Well, it should be more about stylish and usefulness matter. If you have to keep in your wallet, it would be cumbersome in some emergency situation. With this type of gadget, it's just a slip away to hide the usb drive and hardly will get notice from anyone. :)

You're sitting in a meeting, someone needs to pass around some files, and you pop a flash drive out of your watch. Yeah, that would be cool. And when someone says something, you arch one eyebrow and ask, "Well, then, what are you storing in your watch?" Ah, the peals of geek laughter will ring forth through the halls...err, cubicles.
