Crowdfunding Watch: The Kingii - micro inflatable PFD

A new campaign on IndieGOGO for the Kingii promises a potentially life saving inflatable flotation device that is worn on the wrist like a watch.  It went viral and has beat its funding goal in no less than 10 days so seems like someone thinks it's a great idea. I doubt this could ever get coast guard approval but my initial thought is that I would wear one on the water.

 The Kingii fits on your wrist, stays out of the way, is rechargeable and is there when you need it most. The smallest inflatable in the world is perfect for every activity, every age and every environment around the water. The risk of drowning and the need for bulky safety devices is over!

Thoughts?

Great idea but the price will need to come WAY down to justify purchase.
