In that sense the metaphor kind of makes sense. Like the product seems useful but in practice it wouldn't work out the way you expected it to.

Although it doesn't have all the flashy bells and whistles (e.g big screen) right now, that could probably be designed in for future versions. And, I see some uses for this phone. For example, runners or other athletes might like to take it with them on runs. (Carrying a phone can be a pain.) This arm band concept could also work for a music player. The phone also might be good for travelers: less likely to lose since it's attached, and the simplicity might be an advantage because not everyone wants a phone full of features.

Otherwise, no thank you - without screen, good keys, you also have to unpeel it to talk - what if i don't want to use a bt set? or if i loose it? well, this is only then a good idea if you actually have nerve interface - optics and audio.
