“ | That thing on your wrist - it's a convenience. It tells you where to go, what to do, dulls your brain. It may have helped you find the Sierra Madre broadcast, but it's just as much a crutch today as it was in the Old World.

Trivia
- The specific model of Pip-Boy is that of the 3000, as it is presented in Fallout 3 and Fallout: New Vegas. The Pip-Boy was produced as a co-venture between RobCo. Industries and Vault-Tec, before the Great War. RobCo. produces a variety of automated devices, including robots and automated weaponry, not unlike the Engineer's own contraptions.
- This item's description references the eye-popping prettiness blurb on the 'key features' section on Fallout 3's Steam page.
