Caller ID Watches

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the pricepoint-will-decide dept.

kbielefe writes "On Thursday, Sony Ericsson and Fossil Inc. announced a line of bluetooth watches that vibrate when a call comes in on your cell phone, display the number of the caller, and allow you to press a button to send the call to voicemail. No more digging around in your pocket or purse before deciding if the call is important enough to interrupt a meeting."

    How pissed is your boss going to be thinking you're so bored in his meeting that you have to keep checking your watch?
