I thought it was suppose to be showcased at the CEL Manila 2008? :lol:

Kidding aside, gadgets nowadays really come handy and the “touch” generation is slowly creeping the tech world. I wonder when will this wristwatch reach the Philippines.

Ugh. I think it’s a bit cheesy and tacky. No wonder it’s being launched in Vegas. Then again, to each his own. Some people might like it.
