New Fossil SPOT Wrist Net Watch Dick Tracy

Nov 26 2003, 10:03pm EST | by Luigi Lugmayr

Fossil posts two new models of its Microsoft SPOT Watch Line on its site.

The new Wrist Net Dick Tracy (FX3002) and the Fossil Wrist Net Round (FX3001).
We reported about the Wrist Net Square (FX3000) a couple weeks ago. In that story we also said that all Microsoft SPOT watches are delayed till early Q1 2004. Most likely reason is that the Service is not up and running yet.

The Fossil Wrist Net Dick Tracy looks like fun and it will sell for $199. No details are available on what the Dick Tracy watch can do besides the MSN Direct Information Service that will be available on all three Fossil Wrist Net Watches.

The Wrist Net Square and Fossil Wrist Net Round will sell for $179.00.

The MSN Direct Site is already up. You can sign-up for the service if you have a SPOT Watch...
