Watch this Wednesday: The Samsung GPRS Class 10 Watch Phone

Last week we rocked around the couch with the TV Remote watch, this week we ask, Where's our frickin' watchphone already?

What is it?

Samsung�s been telling us we�d all be wearing a 2.8 ounce, GSM, voice activated, OLED displaying (Organic Light Emitting Display), Bluetooth syncing watc phones since 2000. They might have thought we forgot, but we didn�t and we want our watch phone already.

Why we like it
This is up there with a Daisy Youth Red Rider BB Repeater, yet this Christmas, we think the tree will still be empty. It�s cool to show this off, but to never offer it up? C�mon, that�s just cruel.


2000


2001



2003

Where to get it and how much
Samsung, since 2000 you�ve been taunting us each year with a new watchphone model, usually at a trade show with the flurry of accompanying press releases. You best represent at CES in January.

I don't know if you've noticed, but Samsung seem to be in the habit of announcing all manner of crazy things via press release, and then just conveniently forgetting about them.

It's probably to enhance their image as a "forward looking tech company", but it gets a bit annoying after a while.

I wait for this watchphone for a long time, but it have not any sign from Samsung that they will launch it in nearly time.

I think it must better if Samsung still develop this project and think to input some better function like Digital Camera in this phone.

Surely I don't care about performance about Digital camera if Samsung can intput this function (like Casio WQV-10)this watchphone will very perfect to use and Samsung can take my money again.

I am still waiting for this watchphone.
Samsung....Please launch it quickly.

hi just wanted to say that, samsung is actually messing about by saying that this so called watch phone would be released, its a big joke, in essense this advertisement is so people can buy more samsung phones. I WISH NOKIA RELEASES THIS MODEL INORDER TO PENALISE SAMSUNG
