Blue Sky’s Android-Based I’m Watch Now Accepts Pre-Orders

An Italian company called Blue Sky is set to launch an Android-based wristwatch, which is currently in prototype stage for developers to tinker. The “I’m Watch” runs a Freescale IMX233 CPU and can be connected to a cell phone by Bluetooth, allowing users to screen calls, answer or dump phone calls, check messages, access the Internet, and possibly even run teeny-weeny versions of Android apps. The wristwarch features a 1.54-inch screen, 64MB of memory, 4GB flash memory, a headphone jack, and runs on Android 1.6.

Blue Sky is currently accepting pre-orders of the I’m Watch and expects the watches to ship in around November, even though it has yet to get past prototype phase. The base model will cost about 249 euros (about US$350), while higher-end models will be decked with jewels and can run up to 14,999 euros (about US$21,300).
