I wonder if any of those wrist watches that link to a Palm are any good? I would be interested in having a watch with just one simple feature: beeping when I have an appoint entered in my date book. This way I don't have to carry the Palm around with me

Fossil has a Wrist PDA watch that even has a built-in joystick and lets you capture business cards using the infrared beam. I don't need all that.

I know Timex has a few, too

Anyone try one of these?

There was a recent review on The Gadgeteer web site regarding the Fossil Palm and PocketPC Wrist PDAs. Here's the URL for that article:

I don't have any first-hand experience with them. They seem a bit bulky for strapping onto my wrist, but that's a matter of personal preference.

I don't need something that big -- it looks like the band they make prisoners wear when they're under house arrest.
