  • LG's Prada Link watch: not just for your Prada II anymore

    Got a Prada Link Bluetooth watch? Of course you don't, but if you did, you'd be able to take comfort in the knowledge that your pricey, excessive accessory just got a little more useful. Good ol' smartWatchM has been updated to support the Prada Link, meaning that Windows Mobile sets of all kinds can now take full advantage of the watch's capabilities: time sync, call and text notifications, the whole nine yards. Like its Sony Ericsson, Fossil, and Abacus brethren, smartWatchM intends to eventually trick out the Prada Link to do some bonus stuff like to-do lists, weather reports, and more, which means it just got a little closer to practicality -- more than we can say for most Prada-branded products, eh?[Thanks, maflow]

  • smartWatchM hooks Sony Ericsson watches up with WinMo, adds features

    Who says you need a Sony Ericsson phone for a Sony Ericsson watch to function correctly? Well, Sony Ericsson does, but xda-developers is taking a slightly different tune. Member moneytoo over on the Windows Mobile hacking haven has fashioned "smartWatchM," an app that not only gets the Sony Ericsson Bluetooth wristwatch of your choice up and running on Windows Mobile 5 and 6 devices, but -- get this -- actually manages to make it more functional than it is on Sony Ericsson's own phones. Besides the usual caller ID, SMS, MMS, and out of range notifications, smartWatchM adds weather, your task list, operator, profile, and phone battery / signal strength, among other things. Now before you get all worked into a lather about this, Sony Ericsson, bear in mind that this app is only going to sell more of your fricking watches, okay?[Thanks, maflow]
