"HOT Watch: Turn your hand into a phone with innovative private calling. Touch screen, Gestures, Apps. Phone stays in a pocket or bag.

" - Hot Watch KickStarter

I like this Hot watch since you can use it as a phone, and the battery life is better than a Smartphone. It is like the Pebble e-Ink Smartwatch, but can make calls, and do other tasks.

yeah.. i think that I'm gonna pass on this.. I don't wear a watch and so, I really can't see myself using a smart watch, especially if it doesn't the things that both a regular watch and a smartphone does already..

Not to say it's bad, but anyone with big fingers or poor swipe skills may have problems.

I like the idea of using a watch to answer voice calls since a watch uses less battery power than a Smartphone, and there is no way of dropping a watch when strapped to my wrist, and it is lighter than a phone.

Plus, people will have a harder time stealing a watch since it is strapped to my hand. A watch is also always ON, so I don't need to turn on the screen to see the time and other info like most phones. Also, I can be playing games on my phone, handheld consoles, or reading a book while looking at my watch to see the time, and info rather than needing to stop what I'm doing to take out my phone to look at the time, or look at the clock on the wall for the time.

I think there are pens/stylus like the Stylus Pen for the Nintendo DS for people who have big fingers, and poor swipe skills.
