NHJ VTV-101 Wearable TV

Reuben Lee | Jun 24, 2004

Dick Tracy, eat your heart out. Designed to be worn on the wrist, the NHJ VTV-101 Wearable TV lets you catch your favorite programs on a 1.5-inch TFT color screen. The catch: The internal rechargeable battery is good for only about 1 hour of continuously viewing. If you want to watch your movie feature without any interruption, then combine the VTV with the optional battery case, which runs on four AA-sized batteries, to boost usage time to 3 hours.

Price: ¥19,800 (US$182)
Availability: Now
Device: Wrist TV
Basic specs: 1.5-inch active matrix TFT screen; built-in rechargeable battery; one-hour battery life, three hours when used with optional 4 x AAA-sized batteries; 45.7 x 49.4 x 18.2mm; 55g (without accessories)
