Pocket Watch is High Tech Gadget

When you think about it, a PDA is rather like the stopwatch of yesteryear. We carry them for information, we pull them out to check often, and if we are clever we can use them for more than originally designed. Now, to merge the similarities just a bit tighter, we have the the Cobalt, a pocket watch that is more PDA than watch.

Cobalt incorporates text messaging, email, a calendar, and a clock, among other things, in its shell.  But that is not all, since it also has a thermometer, Bluetooth capability for interfacing, voice mail updates,and a round OLED touch screen for control (as well as a functional twist knob, of course).  There is also built in voice recognition capability, and a hidden location on back will even store your keys for you.

The Cobalt is a convergence device, but personally I really like the retro styling. One interesting feature is that you can set the display for an analog clock. Now that would definitely be a gadget wolf in sheep's clothing.
