LG's GD910 watchphone

Available, as expected, through network operator Orange, the watch-cum-phone’s price will vary from region to region. But it’s previously been speculated that the device will cost about £1000 ($1458/€1140).

The GD910 has an integrated camera which lets its wearer make video calls over a 3G connection of up to 7.3Mb/s.

It also features voice recognition, text-to-speech functionality, Bluetooth, an MP3 player and 1.4in touch-sensitive screen. ®
