unfortunately, due to the placement on the wrist, they must be small
I don't know if they're small because they're on the wrist or because they're sold as watches.
I don't think I'd be against having a bigger screen on my wrist like control panels that have been seen in SciFi shows for many years :) Something smaller than an iPhone, but maybe like the iPod Nano would work.
I wouldn't be surprised to see them appear soon. Sometimes, I feel that I could use my iPhone on my arm rather than my pocket, when walking for example. But the smart watches tend to have too little screen real estate.
Certainly, but I think iPhones are too big to be used on a wrist and existing armbands are usually for workouts and for your arm, rather than forearm or wrist.
More importantly, the UI is not done for that use. For example, you might want to lock down the orientation to have the bottom always be towards your body. Apps would also need to be very different, because you'd use it as some kind of dashboard.
