Hyundai W-100 Wristwatch Phone

Phones in watches have been a long time coming, but they've so far been hampered by surprisingly clunky design. Turns out it's difficult to cram a decent battery and controls into something that won't carry you to the bottom of the sea when your hoverjet is shot down over the Mediterranean. The Hyundai W-100 may not be the one yet, but it's a step in the right direction.

It actually has more features than are probably necessary, with a touch-screen interface and camera. (The Bluetooth, which allows headsets to be used, is probably a necessity for something like this.) I don't understand why there's any need at all for smartphone-class features in something with this form factor. Give me Bluetooth, a dial pad, a simple contacts list, and a decent battery, the lighter and tighter the better.

Why isn't the camera on the face? It could be real Dick Tracy watch.

ChinaGrabber had this Digitalrise M600i watch ages ago... Hyundai does NOT make this watch. How could you explain a Korean company having a product with only Chinese and English? Anyways, here are the full specs... http://www.chinagrabber.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=1402

also, this watch is only dual band... only the DigitalRise D187i is tri-band and will work in the USA.. Here is the Link: http://www.chinagrabber.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=1404
