8 ball is stupid. The goal is to enjoy God's company. If you want to just use Him and not love him won't work. Imagine a woman you want to have sex with but just get her company. Or, a billionaire who is surrounded by people who want His money. Entertain God with good conversation and enjoy His conversation as bullshit more or less. God says...

It's very big for a wristwatch. It's also ugly in my eyes

  Not a beauty indeed. When I was choosing the color, I asked my girlfriend, working in the fashion industry, which colour should I choose. She looked at me with horror, her eyes saying "all of them are butt ugly". For the size, it's not too bad from comfort's point of view, and my friends' watches (Casios and others) are often bigger, so it is personal preference, I guess.

  I'm sort of curious as to why it's so big ... given its very modest requirements. Is it just the desire to avoid expensive proprietary highly-integrated components? [I work for a cellphone company, and my boss used to carry around a complete cellphone CPU+RAM+Flash+driver-chips board around in his wallet... it was about the size of a postage stamp (this is about 12 years ago, for "medium power" cellphones). Battery / display / keyboard / I/O ports / antenna etc, took up the rest of the interior of a real cellphone, but it seems that this watch is explicitly designed to be very low-power, etc, and avoids many of the other requirements in a cellphone...]

Can't wait to start programming mine! Now to just move out of state and start my new job first...

I've heard that if you use a second-hand, requiring frequent display updates, it kills the battery pretty quickly... is this true? It would seem a pretty big flaw for a wristwatch...
