No I don't (unfortunately) have one of David's watches (Yet) but is certainly on my wish list but then along came Michel and I like the design of his watch as well, hmm...going to have to buy one of each now aren't I? In all seriousness I think both you guys have superb designs and am envious of your skills and talents. Yes I think the rechargeable design is great and pushing me towards it, I hate have so many mini psu's (Wallwart?) hanging around but now the mini usb standard is starting to be extensively used eg with my mobile phone it makes sense to put them to further use. I get the 45degree tilt idea, would be interesting to see the number of triggers per day/week Kudos to both guys (and I actually enjoy the banter seeing you bounce ideas off of each other whilst we mortals listen in haha)
