I believe @skillissuer is pointing out that in order to broadcast the 1500km that Dick Tracy’s watch was said to have would require a ton of power. That power would make it dangerous to have on your wrist. That’s just what I pieced together through context though.

I don’t think that was a feature of Dick Tracy’s wrist radio.

Ok… what does that have to do with a fictional wrist radio in a comic strip?

Ah, that does make sense. It was very unclear to me.

Mobile phones as phones—yes, maybe that’s easy. But that we don’t actually use them to TALK to people would be weird.
