    Looking for some feedback and suggestions on what model / provider to get it from. Thanks. There seems to be dozens of knock-offs, and it's hard to tell what's what. :~

        It's a basic smart watch for kids. Has GPS tracking, and has a feature where the kid can text or voice call a select list of recipients (usually dad/mom/nanny).

              what are kids?

              When I was growin' up, I was the smartest kid I knew. Maybe that was just because I didn't know that many kids. All I know is now I feel the opposite.

                  Oh, those screaming things I eat. Weird that some humans implement ICloneable. Mine returns E_NOTSUPPORTED but then I'm gay and furthermore could only charitably be called human at this point. I'm told that has something to do with it.

                    My take is to give them a mickey mouse watch and let them break it before giving them something that costs real money.

                    I'd rather be phishing!

                        easier and cheaper to find one at the nearest thrift store.

                            I'm unsure I could get even a secret decoded ring for mine at this point.

                              I don't have any Apple products at home - no phone/laptop/tablet/other-device. So I am not sure I want to spend that kinda money when there's no existing ecosystem to fit it into.
