Ever since I was little I always pondered if someday a computer could be in a watch. That day has come. So when I found out Matsucom made a watch like that, I was willing to give my life for it. When I got the watch I ran around the house, my adrenalin pumping and my head in the clouds. I was screaming I was so happy. How childish. Hah. I picked up the package and opened it with some scissors. I took it out and inspected the watch to see if there was anything wrong with it-there wasn't. I took everything out of the package, the cd-rom, the docking station, the manual, the keychain (which holds an extra battery)and a spare piece of paper which had some standard instructions on it.

I plugged the docking station into the back of my computer via the serial cable, it was very easy. Than I inserted the cd-rom into the computer and installed the software. The software is step-by-step-it is really easy too. After reading the on-screen instructions I placed my watch in the docking station and started putting my business contacts in the watch. Than I got online with my desktop.

I went to www.matsucomusa.com and signed up for their web browser service. It let's you view webpages offline on your watch. So I hopped in the shower and let transferred a bunch of news pages from Yahoo! News to the watch. When I got out I strapped on the watch and went to work. While I was in a meeting I read the news and than went onto play Chess. It has an IR linker on the top of the watch so you can actually play against another person in the room. There are a series of games you can get for free like: Pong, Pacman and other classics. You can also download different applications for the watch, to keep track of your expenses.

This watch has all the functions of a normal PDA, schedule, to-do list, indiglo display, 2 mb flash memory, phone book,etc. Plus the normal watch functions, stop watch, time, etc. I found a relative who had one and while we were on a trip to Los Angeles I played pong with against him and beat him good. I also composed a song on the plane, I used the 8-key piano program I downloaded from www.matsucomusa.com and composed a song I like to call "Thank You Matsucom".
