Prototyping something is not a big deal, challenge lies in gathering funding.

Brainstorm, Sony Ericsson had a similar watch in 2007 which shows incoming phone call number and sms.

Look at the second video, look where he started - samsung was the first to launch a wearable device in a big way and they are targeting it as the future with a lot of more innovations on the way. A smart watch is obviously not a big deal - I agree to that.

okay lets see
1) will you be able to provide "geafencing ??? like the Intel smart watch??
2) then what about accelerometer, an altimeter, and a cylindrical vibration motor and a battery that lasts up to 10 days on a single charge...like the razer nabu??
btw its the best model around

3) then e-ink screen that responds to simple swipe gestures to bring up menu options...like the PHTL HOT???
4) will it be able to take voice commands like the iwatch...APPLE ofcourse???
Theres also talk about chargeless smart watches...hmmm the one pretty similar to seiko.
