I got a Swatch Paparazzi for Xmas...

so was curious as there seems to be a high number of Geeks and Gadget freaks here...

who else has a SPOT watch, Fossil, Tissot, Abacus...?

if you have no idea what I'm talking about take a look at

MSN Direct

BTW these thigns are cool as hell, peopel must think i am obsessed with the time as i walk around staring at my wrist

I don't have 'em but I wonder how much you pay for a monthly service?

Look's like $39.95 a year with messaging being an extra $20.00 per year... LINK

Looks darn silly to me. Who the heck cares what is happening at some club. If you were concerned about what might be happening at that club, you wouldn't need the watch to tell you.

um... i hav egot one "Swath City" notice, those are club info

But i do have constant access to weather in any major us city, local, us, international, science, business and health news. traffic reports are coming soon, outlook calendar synch... outlook contacts coming soon.

yes there are silly features... the "Daily diversions" is a bit silly but fun none the less when looking to kill a coupel minutes... same with horoscopes... the movies section is cool as hell, i select a list of theatres and their entire daily schedule is sent to my watch... for instance "Meet the fockers" is playing at 10:35, 1:20, 4:10, 7:15 & 10:30 at Metro Point stadium 12 in Costa Mesa Ca.

its a new technology... but at about a dollar a week its damn cheep for the information it provides.

also the early word from sources is MS has big news for CES they areexpected to announce P2P for spot devices in close proximity... allowing for multiplayer games(althoguh the memory is small so gamnes would have to be simple)

the idea is not to make a new device.. the idea is to make existing devices better...

i think MS and the watch makers are succeeding

actually if you buy a watch before jan 7th you get a year free... but you have to know who to ask for the promo code. let me know if anyone gets a watch I'll pass on the info.

That's badass!

i got a fossil

i had the fossil... my wrist was so damn small that the antena kept going 0 signal... so technicaly i got a fossil for Xmas and on the 26th returned it and got the swatch

the swatch fits my wrist better, plus its water resistant and even if the band is not clasped it gets signal...

have you been to spotstop.com? if so whats your screen name?

Theres some new fangled invention that can get all of that to you also... I think its called a radio or something.

Just kidding, I'm a sucker for gadgets and I'd love to have one of those watches.
