These look so cool! – A new take on bumping phones but with bracelets. I remember the equivalent low tech friendship bracelets. The textbands let you create and send messages to each other by bumping. I actually think they are fun.
Your band allows you to create messages with up to 10 characters. It could be a word, a feeling, your nickname, something you love, a secret — anything! (I can’t imagine it would stay a secret this way, but this looks like a kind of fun way to pass a message) – Each message allows up to 10 characters. IM speak can come in handy. Each band can hold up to 24 messages at once.
