Wrist Phone, because you're using your cellphone to tell time anyway
Having a cellphone necessarily brings with it the tough decision of where to carry the damn thing. That typically means bulging up a pocket, though at least women can often opt for tossing it in a handbag (but even that adds the rummaging-around step when you get a call). The disposable Wrist Phone makes where to put it an easy choice.
Designed by Shirley A. Roberts, the concept phone is segmented so it can wrap around your arm like a big Wonder Woman-ish bracelet. When you get a call, just detach and lift to your face. That makes it a little less Dick Tracy than LG's Wrist Phone, but we're still impressed. It might be a risky fashion choice for some, but for anyone who stopped wearing a watch when they got a cellphone, it could be the perfect idea.

Does it or will it support BLUETOOTH Tech, and who are the carriers that will endorse it and load it.

probably run off sim card tech enabling t-mobile and ATT in the US along with most of europe. something this new will probably have BT as well but definatly the nd model will if this design get that far. again just speculation.

Interesting to see that a phone could look like
wrist bands from a chain gang... Looking at some of the wrist phones you would see at the Japanese Tech shows are a lot cooler.
on your cellphone!
