Microsoft SPOT Watches

Octagon Most writes "PocketPCThoughts has a report from a graphic designer who worked on wristwatches using Microsoft's SPOT. Tons of design images here and a soon-to-ship model from Suunto here. Data plans from MSN Direct will be USD$9.95 per month. This is the coolest vapor from Microsoft in a long time. It's geeky _and_ stylish!" Our older story about the watches also notes that since it's a proprietary service, when the service provider decides to stop providing it, the device becomes useless.

Fossil Watch by SunBug · 2003-06-26 11:26 · Score: 5, Informative

Fossil already has a watch designed to work with SPOT, and it is supposed to be available this summer. It looks a little bulky, but definitly useable.
