Comments on: Dumbest Gadget Ever: The HydraCoach Nagging Water Bottle http://www.realtechnews.com/2006/09/05/3454/ Independent Tech Fri, 10 Feb 2012 20:26:10 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: Howy Feltersnch http://www.realtechnews.com/2006/09/05/3454/comment-page-1/#comment-1373517 Howy Feltersnch Thu, 07 May 2009 12:02:16 +0000 http://www.realtechnews.com/posts/3454#comment-1373517 I love how you knock this product. Your an idiot! So sick of people like you. There are many people who struggle with drinking enough water, just like people have a hard time getting up in the morning. But I suppose the alarm clock is the stupidest thing ever invented as well because it nags you to get out of bed everyday. Basically, if the product is functional and will help people then it is a great idea. Hey Genius, For you and any others that don't need or like it, Don't BUY IT! You idiot! Do something more useful with your time like inventing a filter for the internet that blocks people like yourself from using it. I love how you knock this product. Your an idiot!

I have used one and it doesn't make any sounds. It looks like the manufacturer made the final device without any alarm (unlike what their website says).

Trying to keep a little count of those glasses is the objective with this device... The look of the device is peculiar and could be done with low tech but who cares... I imagine those who would complain about this device hardly drink any water at all and drink sodas or stupid energy drinks. If you feel the need to complain then you are possibly just a born winer like the author of the article (at least he gets paid for it!) ... :0) Like any handheld gadget, don't knock it till you have tried it... You can still laugh... just don't go overboard on your opinion until you have tried it. Remember, sodas are just good tasting expensive sugar water that some billion dollar companies have been making huge profits off caffeine addicts for close to 100 years. Now who's stupid, the caffiene/sugarwater addicts that spend hundreds of $$$ during their lifetime or a person who spends $30 on a Hydracoach?

I know I should drink water when I backpack but often forget. Last year I failed to reach a peak because I got dehydrated. I think this is a great idea.

However, my 92-yr-old mother needs something to remind her to drink water more often. Who knows, this might work.... For myself, I'll take the BeerCoach.
