Nano Wristwatch Strap, Now ?For Women?

From left to right, the women's Hex strap comes in very dark pink, light pink, dark pink and pink

Pop quiz: What?s the difference between a man?s and a woman?s watch? If your answer involves styling differences, or watch-faces designed to easier fit the typically smaller female wrist, then don?t even bother opening your mouth to tell us.

The difference is that a girl?s watch has a thin strap, and it?s pink.

That?s the difference according to Hex, at least, which has fulfilled an imaginary demand for a women?s version of its iPod Nano-holding wrist-strap. Available in pink, dark pink (purple), light pink (white) and really-dark-pink (black), the all-pink silicone lineup has the exact same size pop-in pop-out square case to hold the tiny touch-screen iPod as does the bigger man-size strap.

Have any of you tried to use a Nano as a watch? I have, and it?s terrible. Like those old 1970s LED digital watches, it requires that you press a button to read the time, defeating the point of having a glanceable clock on your wrist. The wrist-mounted position is fantastic if you you use it as an iPod, though. Just remember to thread the headphone cable up your sleeve or it will annoy the hell out of you.

The rubber Hex strap-on comes in pink (did I mention that?) and costs a rather humorous $30. Available now.
