HT-NewsThe Cell Phone Watch is Here.
Cellular phones have gotten smaller and smaller ņ€“ thatņ€™s what people want. However, the handling doesnņ€™t necessarily get better with decreasing dimensions. One area of improvement is the general application, as a communications device such as a cell phone doesnņ€™t have to be a physical phone. You could also put it around your wrist.
The Hong Kong based OEM manufacturer Man Power Hi-Tech Limited and Marble Watch Manufacturing had only a tiny booth, but they demoed the latest version of the Cell Phone Watch. The model MP2008B is based on an operating system its makers werenņ€™t able to specify any further. It is based on a 1.8ņ€¯ TFT touch screen display, supports the three key GSM bands at 900, 1800 and 1900 MHz, comes with Java, WAP, a MP3 player and even MPEG4 video playback. We couldnņ€™t try that one as there was no video file on the demo watch.
The Cell Phone Watch works like a regular cell phone, which means that it also supports SMS and MMS, has a file manager, comes with a voice recorder, and even displays JPEG images if you want.
Since no one would want to hold the Cell Phone Watch to your ear to make a phone call, Bluetooth 2.0 obviously is the way to go. According to the manufacturer, the Cell Phone Watch can connect to the vast majority of Bluetooth headsets. If you donņ€™t have a Bluetooth headset at handy you may also use the integrated speaker and microphone.
It weighs 85 g if you select a plastic version with a rubber band, or it comes at 120 g in the metal case version. USB 2.0 is used to transfer data from and to the Cell Phone Watch.
