Look at you, telling yourself you’re getting so much done because you can sort Excel spreadsheets and chew gum at the same time. You call that multitasking? You wanna talk multitasking? Today’s woot allows the nerd-on-the-go to tell the time, communicate with an associate from 1.5 theoretical miles away, and look like a total freaky nutcase weirdo – all at the same time!

This anonymous Digital 2-Way FRS/GMRS Wristwatch Radio 2-pack is short on provenance and long on sheer geeky functionality. Who needs a brand name when you’ve got 22-channel capability, VOX voice activation, channel scan, 38 CTCSS codes, and styling that says “I may look like an IT drone, but I’m a secret agent on the inside”? Why get hung up on labels when a Chester Gouldian world of wrist-based adventure is just a credit card charge away? And the next time you’re on the bus and the normals threaten to get too close with their foul breath and their tentlike sports jerseys and their lack of appreciation for Diana Rigg as Emma Peel, just mutter a few syllables into this thing. There’s no way anybody will sit next to you.
