Sony Ericsson announces a Bluetooth Wristwatch that displays caller id and more from your mobile phone.
The Sony Ericsson MBW-100 is actually made by Fossil. The analog watch with stainless steal casing has a small OLED display that shows incoming calls.
Pushing a button on the watch can decline the call. Other features include out-of-range warning, SMS indication and play, pause and skip control for the mobile phone music player.
