Swatch Infinity Concept PMP Watch

Convergence

By: Jenn K. Lee on February 5, 2007 8:24 PM

If you're looking for something a little less puzzling than the Rubik's Cube MP3 player, how about a nostalgic yet modern Swatch watch PMP? The imaginary brainchild of designer Pierre Merlet, the Swatch Infinity is a bracelet-style digital watch that features a removable face, MP3 player, video and photo viewer, and some sort of recording function. Some say it's for capturing video, but a voice recorder seems more likely to us, especially since we don't see a built-in camera anywhere.

Guess we'll never find out for sure either, as the Infinity looks to have a pretty firm grip on that "concept" tag. Too bad, too, because it's a lot nicer than some of the other media-enabled watches that actually made it off the drawing board.

More pictures after the jump.

The design looks a lot like the Clix, I think. Like, Clix on a watch :D

I think photos and vidos are kinda dumb on something like that, but it looks really cool. I dunno what's so clix-like about it though. I'd buy one if it was less than 250 CAD

It's a nice quasi-space age idea though, however gimmicky and unpractical.

Samsung P2

The Samsung P2 has been gaining quite a following lately and rightfully so. If you are looking for something well designed, innovative, and feature packed; you should look into this full touch screen wonder. The Bluetooth feature set is what I find to be the most intriguing, with the ability to tether to your phone to make calls or wirelessly transfer with no restrictions to other P2s. Check out the review or stop by our ever growing P2 forums to get the latest info.
Toshiba Gigabeat T400

The Gigabeat T400 is without a doubt my favorite flash player at the moment. It does have one major setback in that it only comes in a 4GB, shame on you Toshiba. What makes me love this player is it's ultra slick sexy design, very easy- just pick up and use interface, and killer sound quality that would make Cowon users envious. This player is a must buy for anyone who sports a premium set of headphones. Full review to come but you should really just buy one.
SanDisk Sansa Clip

The Clip has a fantastic little form factor; cheap in build quality but very rugged. The interface is simple and relatively straight forward. The features on the clip are more or less average, mostly identical to the Sansa Express. However, what earns this player a spot in Editor’s Choice is the superb sound quality; you will not find another player at this size and price that can match it. Read the full review or go ahead and buy it.
Cowon iAudio D2

The D2 is a fantastic sounding PMP with a very nice looking screen and a tone of features. One of the best features of the D2 is the SDHC slot allowing you to add another 32GB to this small wonder. The touch interface does not lend well to on the move operation, but it is not enough to keep it from being an editor’s choice. You can find usually find it at Amazon for the best price and before to check out the review.
JAYS q-JAYS

The q-JAYS are great in ear phones. They offer excellent clarity, silky treble, realistic midrange, and a nice bass response. They're comfortable, incredibly tiny, and come with a huge selection of accessories. While they certainly are analytic phones, they're still fun to listen to. The q-JAYS respond well to EQing, and can be tweaked to fit almost anyone's sound preference. Recommended for anyone owning a good sounding player and well encoded audio files. Check out our review.
