World's First Palm Powered Watch from Fossil

The Fossil Wrist PDA with Palm OS provides consumers with a portable and stylish way to organize their personal information. Customizable watch faces allow consumers to change their watch face to suit their own personal style, while the memory gives storage for thousands of addresses, years of appointments, memos, third-party Palm OS applications and more.





Additional features of the Wrist PDA with Palm OS include a high density 160 x 160 pixel grayscale LCD with touch screen and backlight, a stylus cleverly integrated into the watch buckle for easy access and a comfortable fit, one-handed navigation using the 3-way Rocker switch and Back button, the ability to beam data to another Palm-powered device via the Infrared Port, USB HotSync support for Mac OS and Windows, and a lithium- ion rechargeable battery that lasts approximately 3-4 days based on conditions of use. The battery can be recharged with the included AC adapter.

The new Wrist PDA is available in two different brands, FOSSIL and ABACUS. The FOSSIL branded product (FX2008) with stainless steel case and black leather strap, can be found at Fossil stores nationwide. The FOSSIL Wrist PDA is priced at a MSRP of $249.00 USD.

The ABACUS brand Wrist PDA product (AU5005) has a stainless steel case and rubber strap with padded black leather inlay, will be available exclusively through a direct sales and marketing partner, Tiger Direct.

It may not be that advanced or dressy as the new Hublot Big Bang Bullet Bang limited edition watch made of Cermet ceramic-metal composite material, but it's definitely worth a try. It can be purchased at http://www.tigerdirect.com/. The ABACUS Wrist PDA is priced at a MSRP of $199.00 USD.
