Abstract

A wearable digital media device comprising an integrated circuit configured to send and receive content on receipt of a serial identification number unique to the personal digital media device, a processor and a display screen. The personal digital media device'"'"'s processor utilizes a radio frequency integrated circuit to send and receive content with, for example, a personal computer or other host processing device. The personal digital media device is configured and outfitted to be worn by the user, for example, as a watch, a pendent, or attached to a user'"'"'s book bag.

Claims
