Pros & Cons
Details
The WatchMinder uses a discreet vibrating alarm to remind its wearer of daily tasks. In the case of AD/HD, the watch may display a message such as "stay on task" or "keep focused" to a child in school without alarming his surrounding classmates. For the general public, the idea is that this watch can help modify and train your own behavior. For example, smokers may program the WatchMinder to remind them to "use the patch", or "resist temptation". It can be an excellent tool for reminding the elderly of when to take their medications.
It's built-in messages include: BATHRM (bathroom); BE POS (be positive); BREATH (breathe); COUGH; FOLDIR (follow directions); FOLRUL (follow rules); GIVPOS (give positive reinforcement); GOODJB (good job); HANDUP (raise hand); IGNORE; POSIMG (positive image); POSTUR (posture); PRAY; PYATTN (pay attention); RELAX; REST; SIT; STOP; STRTCH (stretch).
The WatchMinder is a digital watch with a programmable vibrating (or optionally beeping) alarm. It can store up to 30 alarms, and features two modes of operation: training and reminder. 2" x 2-1/4" x 5/8". Weighs 2 ounces (57 g).
