A wrist watch that only tells the time is not something that a gadgeteer would probably take much notice of – right? Of course I’m right 🙂 That’s why I want to show you the 20.20 Sport Digital Watch from iBeam. This watch tells the time and a whole lot more.

I’m the kind of person who can only wear one watch at a time. That is, I don’t wear one to work, another one for play, and yet another for dress. So it’s important to me that whatever I wear does everything I need. Unfortunately for me, I’m drawn to gadgets, and I can be

I saw this on Gizmodo and TreeHugger this morning and couldn’t resist re-posting about it. This is the new Boiler solar powered watch from Freestyle.

A couple of years ago, I reviewed the Innovative Sleep Solutions Sleeptracker watch. This watch claimed to wake a person up at the optimal time in his or her sleep cycle, causing the person to awake refreshed and ready to face their day. Unfortunately, the watch didn’t work well for me and I have continued to bury my head under the covers every morning when my evil alarm clock rings. Since that review, I’ve kept an interest in these types of devices and was happy to try again when the folks at aXbo offered their Sleepphase alarm clock for review.
