Orange wristwatch phone is on its way
UK mobile operator Orange will introduce a futuristic wristwatch phone designed by LG on Thursday, August 27.
The LG Touchscreen Watchphone, also known as the LG-GD910, will go on sale at Orange’s Bond Street Station shop in London nest week.
The gadget boasts a scratch resistant touchscreen interface, which Orange claims is comfortable enough to use for text messaging, 3G connectivity, a VGA camera and an in built speaker and MP3/AAC player.
In true Dick Tracy fashion, voice and video calling is all voice operated, and presumably means bystanders will now be able to hear both sides of a conversation.
The device costs £500, and is available in limited quantities with a restriction of just one per customer.
I dont think this will become a next generation phone. Teens like phones like iphones or phones like Nokia Aeon ( http://www.domesticutilities.com/aeon.htm ) . but its not for me
How on earth do you dial, send texts etc….assuming the screen, albeit small has dialling/texting capability..
Also assume you need a bluetooth headset?…
Nice idea…but purely a marketing gizmo..
