Vibrating bracelet won't miss a call

After dismissing the concept behind the "BlueQ" wristband alert last year, we were immediately lambasted by readers. (Something that's become all too familiar for some of us.) So we proceed with due caution in passing along this similar product.
The "BluAlert Vibrating Bluetooth Wristband" works on the same principle as the BlueQ: Both are wearable devices that discreetly and wirelessly alert you when you get a call while the phone is in your bag or purse with the ringer turned off, according to 7Gadgets. We do appreciate that this new version at least attempts to look like something other than a sweat band.
At the same time, you may not want to wear one during a job interview. Your prospective employer might think you were on a break from house arrest.
Outside of the aforementioned use, the idea of it vibrating whenever you are five meters away from your phone will help eliminate lost/left behind cell phones.
I think this is very useful. It's better than having to wear a bluetooth headset all the time (cept of course when you are in the car).
