I wasn’t going to post on this until in landed in my inbox, and lo and behold it was there this afternoon. Even though I have seen this bauble on other sites and thought for half a second about how cool it might be to have a wristwatch that was not only a phone, but was also a Windows Mobile device…reality set in. Do I think this is a cool idea? Oh, absolutely. Do I think it is necessarily a good one? Not so much. Can I imagine really trying to do anything serious that would take advantage of WM5 on a screen this tiny? Oh heck no. Would I like to try one? Heck ya!

Say hello to the EGP-98B, the new Wristwatch phone which also sports Windows Mobile 5. There is so much stuff supposedly contained in this wristwatch that I kept looking for the April Fool’s label at the end of the press release, but evidently it’s for real – and you can buy your own for just $629.95. No foolin’.
