Hi, I certainly wouldn't pay that much for it, given it ran on a very old and forked version of Android. It was as unresponsive as heck and I reckon the Bem Wireless Speaker would do more paired to a phone. And I won't even go there with the price difference.

It offers features such as a stopwatch, timer, voice recorder and music player, all accessed through speech output. As its name suggests, a touch screen is used to access all areas of the watch and due to the speech access, no part of the device is left inaccessible to a blind or low vision user. David Woodbridge from Vision Australia did an audio demonstration of this product when it launched in late 2013: http://mainmenu.acbradio.org/viewshow.php?showid=282 For a short time, Sight & Sound sold the watch for £249 but due to lack of interest (and therefore lack of sales), the watch was taken off of the market and (I believe) the manufacturer no longer produces the product. However, when I attended Sight Village today, a man (who I shall leave nameless) offerred to give me an unsold one. Of course, I accepted and it is coming at some point next week. I was curious to know if anybody had any more info than me, or if anyone had tried one or owns one themf. What do you think of it? Is it easy to use? Also, does it have a built-in speaker for speech output?
