: The Seiko Instruments Inc Bluetooth watch

Seiko Instruments Inc announced their first Bluetooth watch yesterday, the BT Watch or CPC TR-006 ver.1.0. This hi-tech watch is packed into a very stylish casing and this watch will be released onto the market at the end of this year or beginning 2007. This watch is in fact an extension of your phone, and you'll be able (at first) to play around with the volume of the ringtone of your phone. It can also alert you when you have an SMS or email, and it can display the number and the name of the person that is calling you. Finally, it will also alert you when the Bluetooth connection between the watch and phone is broken, so you won't forget your phone anymore. This is a product that might change our lives a bit, the way we use a phone and even appeal to the technophobes. As this phone is not released, we really hope that Seiko Instruments Inc will add more functions in the final version.

A demo video is available on WBS TV Tokyo's website:
