Where’s My Dick Tracy Wristwatch Cell Phone?

The newest wristwatch cell phone is absolutely incredible: The $549 Epoq EGP-WP88 is a quad-band unlocked-GSM cell phone. It sports a touch screen for dialing, and can use a Bluetooth headset — or you can forgo the headset and do it Dick Tracy style and talk to the hand. The EGP-WP88 plus takes pictures and plays music and videos. It charges like a regular watch, using kinetic recharging (it

charges as you move your arms while walking). The gadget is incredible, but YOU WON’T BUY ONE AND NEITHER WILL I. The reason: considering cell phone carriers like AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, et al, refuse to enable multiple handsets per detail. whether you want two phones, they’ll force you to use two accounts. So everyone has to pick just one cell phone handset.
