I was really looking into buying the Fossil Palm watch that's coming out this spring. However, there are some big detriments to it that put me off and made me satisfied with the watch my girlfriend gave me for Christmas

First, navigation on this type of thing is going to be tough. Fossil's watch has a touchscreen, so that might make it easier. Still, I have to wonder if thinfourth isn't right, because what happens if you accidentally smack your wrist on something? Bye-bye touchscreen.

The other thing is, battery life is so short on the Fossil. They're saying you'll pretty much have to recharge is every night. I can't be bothered. Perhaps this new OS they're making will be lighter on the batteries.

Those were the main things. I'll be happy with a normal watch
