Watches Versus Cell Phones

Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

It’s not surprising that many people opt to use their cell phones to check the time in lieu of wearing a wrist watch. Cell phones have become the next multi-function platform; people can use their cell phones as planners, alarm clocks, and GPS units; cell phones can serve as a web browser, supports webmail, offers weather reports, and newsfeed. So why bother with a wrist watch when everything is conveniently taken care of in one package?

Here are a few reasons:

1. Convenience: Believe it or not, using a wrist watch to check the time is much more convenient than flipping out your cell phone. The simple action of looking at your wrist as opposed to fishing out your cell phone from your cluttered purse or stuffed pockets is substantially easier, especially if you’re in a rush. Plus, it’s substantially more difficult to get your cell phone fixed as opposed to finding a shop that offers say Rolex watch repair.

2. Efficiency: Checking the time on your watch saves you the trouble of locating your cell phone, not to mention mitigating the strong possibility of getting distracted from all of the applications and operations that are available on your cell phone.

3. Style: A wrist watch can be that final touch to your ensemble, that little extra something that could mean the difference between adequate and breathtaking. In the case of most formal functions, cell phones are only taken out to receive calls of import and that Rolex shining on your wrist would be much more appropriate for the occasion.

Who Watches Video on Their Wrist Watch?

Monday, February 15th, 2010

It’s not unheard of for someone to access online videos or stored movies files from platforms other than a laptop. Hand held gaming consoles such as the PSP, cellular phones, and even select mp3 players have this capacity. So does it strike as a surprise to anyone that even wrist watches now have video capabilities? Although there haven’t been that many released, some watch companies are adopting this approach for their respective products. Here are two wrist watches on the market now:

1. The ThinkGeek Video Watch with OLED screen has both video and audio capabilities in addition to its primary time-keeping function. With a storage capacity of 8 gigabytes, the Video Watch has more than enough space for videos and music. The full color 128×128 pixel screen delivers crystal clear video or image viewing for the wearer, and the watch support widely used file formats such as JPEG and BMP. The Video Watch’s audio player supports MP3 and WMA files and, with the built-in microphone, allows wearers to record as well, a perfect tool for students attending lectures or professionals during staff meetings. The style of the Video Watch is surprisingly slim given its various features and charges by a USB link.

2. The LG Watch Phone has adopted the same touch-screen feature that is now available on many cellphones and laptops. As the name suggests, the watch double functions as both a watch and a cellphone, making their bulkier communicative cousins obsolete in one tiny, manageable package. The LG Watch Phone also has a built-in music player for its wearer, which may seem obsolete given its tiny size. But the watch’s volume is surprisingly loud, and it comes with a Bluetooth headset for the wearer’s convenience. The watch’s video capabilities and camera are apparently geared towards video conferencing for the business oriented rather than video viewing.

We’d feel that these products would probably appeal to a broad spectrum of customers, from business professionals to college students.
