It is absolutely absurd for this page to be about the thing on Leela's wrist.  The title of the page is fitting with the picture, as they are both referring specifically to the wristlojackimator itself.  The name itself should have been enough of a clue for this, as LoJack is used for locating lost objects, e.g. cars.  Naming the entire contraption after just one of its many components simply for lack of a better name is embarrassing to us as a fanatical community.  Honestly, I'd be happier with Pip-Boy.  If it doesn't have a name and The Thing (Leela Wears On Her Wrist) is for some reason unacceptable, then make up a name!  I'm all for just calling it That Thing or something similar, as the humor surrounding the device comes from it NOT having a name.  All I'm saying is the device itself deserves a separate page from the Wristlojackimator.--[[User:Pierresauce]] 00:56, 29 September 2011 (MST)

Real ones!

Check it out! How long before they become commonplace? I mean, integrate communications (i.e., a phone) and some basic apps (e.g., Tetris), and you'd have a "thing" on your wrist. --Buddy 05:57, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
