Great idea, but not terribly useful due to poor ergonomics. Still, it undeniably had appeal. This is like a calculator watch for a new decade, but also for a greatly reduced audience (Fewer people use oscilloscopes than calculators). This doesn&amp;#x27;t seem likely to find much of an audience unfortunately, but a part of me still wants one!</text></comment>
