We all know how popular hip-tops are. It seems everyone between the ages of 10 - 18 has a T-Mobile Sidekick. Say what you will about it but the turnstile flip-screen is pretty cool. Isn't there something like that for us adults? According to designer Jimmy Zhu, yes - yes there is. He doesn't name his concept but from what I can tell the entire watch face is actually a module. Interchangeable wrist strips let you express your style and with just a flick of the finger, the screen rotates up to reveal your standard numeric and softkey buttons. No specs are listed so it's total fantasy HOWEVER, technology does exist to support his design. The screen could probably be OLED or AMOLED based. A lithium ion battery could power the thing for days. Throw in a bluetooth module to support handsfree use and you have yourself a winner. All in all, I like it!
