Friend's $249 AI Pendant Locks Long-Term Memory Behind a $10/Month Subscription

Friend's re-launched AI pendant costs $249 and requires a $10 monthly subscription to retain conversational memory beyond 30 days. Without it, interaction history resets at the one-month mark. The effective first-year cost reaches $369 for a device whose always-on microphone and built-in speaker enable verbal responses without a companion phone app.
