I really don't understand some of you. First, I had to drudge through your comments (in earlier threads) complaining about the Wii's lack of DVD-playing capability. Now you guys are whining about the gimmicky-ness of this news channel.

I hope you hypocrites can see the irony.

"Its hard to tell if dave is joking without seeing his facial expressions! Dick"

Nabisco is right; it's really easy to tell Dave is joking. Just like everyone can tell you're an idiot, despite not seeing your face.

I'd like the Fossil Dick Tracy Wrist Net MSN Direct watch please, number 13.

To be honest, the watch's wireless functions are pretty snazzy, but what I really care about is getting those messages from the police chief. "Trouble by the docks you say? You can count on me!" "Hostage at the abandoned warehouse? I'm on it chief!" It's nice to feel wanted. Sigh.

Others might complain about its gargantuan size, but I can't think of a better way to let your presence be known. Suppose, while casing some joint, an eagle-eyed crook spots a figure in the distance. He can't quite make out the face, but thinks, Hey, looks like there's something around his wrist. Could be a watch. Seems kinda big though. "Oh sh*t, it's Dick Tracy!"

I need this watch. People who don't appreciate how cool this is should just stick with their ipods and myspaces. Punk kids.
