Anyone seen this? for £179 it looks pretty funky. A touchscreen watch for the iPhone generation?

USB rechargable, touchscreen, alarm/timer/time, 'different' design... hmm!

Quite cool, but the time should surely be displayed horizontally rather than vertically. The thing that put me off more than the display though was the stupid corporate speak, for want of a better term, marketing.

Interesting concept, but the product itself looks a bit on the cheap side, IMHO. However at £179, it's far from cheap! Tokyo Flash offer a wide range of designs that are a bit different to the norm, but for more than half the RRP of the Mutewatch!

ETA: The 1-2 week battery life of the Mutewatch would annoy me ... I have enough devices that require recharging; I don't want another! hehe

I can see the "trendy young things" lapping these up.

The mute vibrate could be useful for meetings where you don't want to run over etc....

touchscreen watch makes sense for the kids I suppose...does seem expensive...

They've just reviewed this on 'Something For The Weekend' - it looked a bit rubbish but the birds wearing the watches were quite fit smile

It looked appalling. And then they revealed the price!
