Are you into that new Apple Watch? Would it be more attractive to you if you could buy a "smart wrist piece" where the screen wrapped all around your wrist creating a "digital canvas"?

The Wove Band, a "digital canvas" (the CEO of the company not wanting it be called a smart watch), that has 4680 mm square screen space, which is 6.5 times the amount of screen space that the Apple Watch has. This large screen allows you to see things like your text messages at a larger scale with no scrolling needed. When the user is alerted of a text message all they have to do is role their wrist over and the text will appear in a landscape view. The Wove Band has been designed to never turn off unlike the competitive smart watch, instead it can display different "band" designs that can be pared with a watch face.
This new idea of a wearable "digital canvas" is very interesting to me. I have never wanted a smart watch before, but the Wove Band is something that I would like to take a closer look at when it comes out in 2016. This band sounds more usable and convenient than a smart watch. I like the idea of being able to use the whole surface of this wearable technology.
What do you think, has the Wove Band peaked your interest as well? Would you rather a smart watch or a Wove Band?

This new smart band is predicted to be released to the public in mid-2016 at a lesser price than the Apple Watch.

I think the apple watch is really neat, but this is so much cooler! It is definitely a convenience product, but will for sure be a trend setter.
