  1. Nice watch but... by omega9 · · Score: 2, Informative · on Wrist Watch Camera Now with Color Display
    A buddy of mine has the original Casio watch. It's resolution makes it worthless. When he snaps pictures of us we're essentially a blob of grey pixels. A color version just means we'll be pink(ish) pixels.

    Now the eyemodule cameras for Handspring PDAs are just right. I had the original and now have an eyemodule2 and can't say enough good things about it.

    • Takes 640x480 color pictures
    • Captures short movies (although in Quicktime)
    • Incredibly small and portable
    • Comes with a nice custom cut foam aluminium case
    • Nice geek factor(!)

    Obviously if you want hi-res pictures then a watch or a PDA addon is not what you need. But compare these pictures taken with the Casio watch, and these pictures taken with an eyemodule2. If you're a Handspring owner it's absolutely worth checking out.

    But what I really want to know is what's up with that Nokia 7650 phone features on the same page as the new Casio watch?! It's beautiful!
  2. Fun? Practical? by CottonEyedJoe · · Score: 3, Informative · on Wrist Watch Camera Now with Color Display
    Ok, This device seems like it might be "fun" for japaneese teenagers. Sort of like the keychain computer animals that kids were supposed to "raise". If you've taken a look at the gallery you'd know that the actual images are of very little value, even for spy camming pervs.


    And it dosent look like it runs linux....YET! Not to mention MacOSX. Maybe Steve Jobs should check into a similar device as the next link in the digital hub. Its the natural progression....iMac, iBook, iPod....and the new watch cam.....iCantSeeADamnThingWithThisSillyWatch.

  4. Re:McCartney by Kris_J · · Score: 2 · on Digital Camera Wristwatch

    It looks like he used the original black and white version. I have one. Currently an image of the watch itself is wrapped 'round my gameboy camera webcam pic on my journal. I had some images up at CamBorg as "Krisjohn", but they're mostly expired. My cat is in the best of 2000 -- in fact, the two on the right, top row are both mine.

  6. Other tiny tech images... by Kris_J · · Score: 2 · on Palm Used in Contemporary Art

    If anyone wants to see some similar, but more photographic, sorts of things I recommend the gallery at CamBorg. I've just had some of my Gameboy camera photos posted there, but otherwise it's images taken with the Casio Wrist Camera. At the moment the subjects and composition are a little immature, my own included, but I'm sure the artform will develop. The idea of peicing together a large peice like the one in this story is very appealling -- I think I might get myself a Gameboy printer.
