If this comes out in kit form like a bunch of other esp32 components, I'm building myself a global because no one else will.

I feel like this will eventually lead to wrist/firearm "cellphones" rather than watches, as they can finally actually slightly contour to your arm and be sold to different people of different sizes.

Actual sleek "pip boys".

Ever since I got a smart watch I just wanted the same thing but bigger.

what i want is something like a xiaomi smart band with a rolled up display on the other side that you can pull out over your palm, that'd be some of the best ergonomics i can imagine.

and if you can make it deploy with a spiderman gesture that's 5 billion bonus points
