My phone for the last 2-3 years was a very, very small Motorola F3 ("moto fone")[1]. Beautiful phone, wonderful design, e-ink display, battery life forever. But it broke. And it was time to finally have a smartphone. But I could not bring myself to carry around one of these huge obelisks... and so was very, very happy to learn of the Neptune Pine phonewatch[2]. I never attached it to the band and have no intention of ever using it as a watch. It's just a very, very small, full featured android phone. I am using it right now to provide wifi-tethering to my laptop in a coffee shop. Full, modern features (bluetooth, speakerphone, etc.) and I have no complaints about the telephone functions/quality. Texting is a little difficult with such a small screen, but it's not that bad. If I need to text, I can. I'm sure there's some speech to text app that would fix this, but I don't care to look right now. Yes - there should be more small phones. A lot more. There has been zero design in the smartphone space since the first iphone - they're still just monolithic touchscreen tablets. We need new designs, not just minor iterations on iphone 1.
