This is kind of a weird "side complaint", but: despite being a humongous guy, I actually have reasonably sized wrists. The wakemate, when it arrived, had a wrist band so small (and if there were sizes on the site I'm certain I would have ordered the largest one) that I gave it to my girlfriend's little sister (who likely never used it), as I knew there would be no way I'd be able to wear it. I wonder if this has also been handled in 2.0 ;P.

From the article:

Another recent addition: you can now purchase a larger version of the WakeMate wristband, should you find the original size too tight.

So yes, apparently that is fixed in 2.0 :)

Ok, I'm stupid: thanks. :(
For what it's worth, I am a tall but slim male and my wrists are very thin, I can fit my hand around with my thumb and little finger meeting together, the wakemate fits me very well so I imagine anyone with "normal" wrists who isn't a midget would have comfortability problems.
