just wait for that 5gb per cm2 plastic memory coming out soon, that'll make it plausible..
..but I'm not sure your concept continues the iPod theme accurately - it's more a Nike type low-profile piece. I'd expect an Apple equivalent to much more like subtle body jewellery or something - I'm thinking solid white and enamel bars rather than pliable plastic.

Id like to see some more detail on it. Can the components be scaled down to the size/orientation you want? How are you going to manage the practically no battery? If it isnt a watch, why style it as a watch? It looks like a one-piece are you limiting it to one radial size i.e. teenage girls wrist/ankle to a fat web-designers wrist/ankle?
lots and lots of questions to be asked at concept stage - It could be a nice project

with wireless headphones.

so how many songs will it store, and for that matter, where...?

I don't see room for connectivity. Not everyones wireless, and wireless headphone, last i knew, needed a huge reciever to work well....the physicalities of a hard drive in that are hard to believe, then you'd be thinking flash memory, a couple gigs at most..... that and I've had friends with mp3 player watches and well, they just looked uncomfortable.......

although it is neat... i am sure there is a reason why the current ipod is so big, i can not forsee it being this compact anytime soon,

I assumed the headphone jack was on the other side or on top, out of view in current comp.
As for size, I never thought that you can have a 40gig hard drive so small. 3 years ago i would haved asked the same question about the current ipod, "Where do you put all the song?"
Also I don't think it's a watch, it's a Grip, hence the name. You can put it anywhere.
Thanks

i dig it, not quite there yet though. good idea in a few years. they have those USB watches that hold like 512MB, cool for like an album or something in terms of this design.

Make it for the ankle - like a house arrest anklet.

great concept - looks pretty cool - take it to apple and see what they say!

It's teh camp. I don't really like it, sorry. It's overly ergonomic, retro and styalised. It's not classy... and 6 months down the line I think it'll look dated. I much prefer the simplicity of present ipod.

which appendage is it for? ;)
cool

Just my two cents.
It seems awkward. Not awkward in design but awkward in usage. I am supposed to wear it on my wrist correct? I am not big on wristwear. That's just me though. I occasionaly wear a watch so if you can get it to display the time I'd be more apt to wear it. As it stands now it looks like a big 1960's mod bangle. So as far as actual end users go you are going to run into people like me who don't wear accessories. It also clashes with my largely black wardrobe. Then again the thing could become the next big thing. You slim it down a bit so it's not so clunky. Offer colors the thing may jump off the shelves.
