Watch Phone


In elder times, the purpose of a watch was,in fact, giving you the time. Being a fancy accessory just for executive people is a thing of the early days. Let's make it clear, cellphones can do everything: they take photos, play music, play games, wake you up and ,of course, they give you the time. There's a whole PC in your hand.

But, what about a whole PC on your wrist?

Some mates from South Australia bet on mixing technologies and puff! there's a Watch Cellphone.

Will this be the next generation of cellphones? who knows!

I don't think that this things will succeed as a next generation but it will be funny seeing someone talking through their bran new watchphones or playing rock n' roll train with it.

I personally will not buy it because it doesn't seem to be very confortable to write a SMS but I can change my mind when I see one of them.

At this time they are aiming to sell 100'000 units of them and they believe it will overcome the traditional phones in the future.
