Re: The shape? Message #4 Posted by DaveJ on 8 Oct 2009, 8:49 p.m., in response to message #3 by geoff quickfall and that's exciting, how? :-/ Dave.

Re: The shape? Message #5 Posted by BruceH on 9 Oct 2009, 3:05 a.m., in response to message #4 by DaveJ It's not the shape it will be the cost. Hugely expensive, so that no one buys one and then becomes a rare collectors piece in 20 years.

Re: The shape? Message #6 Posted by hecube on 9 Oct 2009, 12:02 p.m., in response to message #5 by BruceH That's what I was thinking. And the shape is vaguely reminiscent of the HP-01.

Perhaps one of the apps will be a calculator. With what user interface? I've got a scientific calculator app on my Timex USB datalink watch, but using the crown to spin up numbers one-by-one isn't exactly efficient. Dave.

I have no idea but the face is at least partially touch sensitive (they have a demo of that) and they claim to have to calendar and event functionality built-in so there must be at least a graphical way to display numbers and enter them.

Re: The HP-01 of our time Message #11 Posted by Martin Pinckney on 9 Oct 2009, 9:36 a.m., in response to message #10 by Martin Pinckney It's what my Uncle used to call a Wonder Watch - you stare at it and wonder what time it is.
