from the ibm-is-working-on-bluetooth-just-like-others dept. This news from CNET reports that IBM today displayed some show-stopping devices, with wireless handheld computers and wearable PCs drawing large crowds at the PC Expo trade show. Among the items unveiled was the IBM WatchPad. Still in prototype and not yet close to reaching the market, the watch is capable of synchronizing data and images with a portable computer or PC via wireless connections. Sporting a surprisingly crisp VGA screen, the WatchPad is capable of handling text, photos and animation. An animated watch face, for example, is circled by clear bars that fill up when there is an appointment. A touch of the finger brings up the appointment details. < | >
