Calling all cars, calling all cars... be on the look out for the
SMS M500 GSM Watchfone. That's right, the first shipments of the
M300 followup are said to be leaving Hong Kong as of tomorrow, May 30th. Now we can all get a little Dick Tracy with "the world's smallest mobile phone" -- or so says SMS Technology Australia. Unlike Dick's 2-way Wrist Radio which emerged in 1949, this pup goes quad-band GSM while packing a 1.5-inch touchscreen with itty bitty, built-in stylus; Bluetooth 2.0; and all the 120 x 160 pixel MP4 video (or MP3/AAC audio) you can pack into its 128MB of storage. The watch weights just 60-grams and should hold-up to about 200 minutes of talk or 80 hours standby before needing a USB recharge. Now if someone could just hook us up with a
jetpack we can get to living in the future promised to us by
Uncle Walt (no,
the other one) in those free lovin' 70s.

Charger doesn't work on mine and the watch in HUGE! The screen sucks! Nothing like in the pictures! The stylus slips out and the speakerphone is dead!
We all got screwed!
Hi guys 'n' gals,
I have found a company in China (where else) that has an excellent price and quality Mx00 (not M300) product. With luck I will have two samples of the latest watch with unlocked GSM phone, MP3/4 player, megapixel camera etc. etc.
I know that is could be a scam but I have done my best to check them out. My research shows they are real and legitimate OEMs. If it works out then I will post the details and you can purchase them from my company for a reasonable price with warranty etc.
Many Thanks,
Simon (Ireland)
