Samsung working on wristwatch to rival Apple's

Samsung Electronics Co is developing a wearable digital device similar
to a wristwatch, a source with direct knowledge of the matter said,
joining rival Apple Inc in creating new products as growth of

smartphone sales slows.

 The Samsung device will perform many of the tasks of a smartphone,
the source said on Tuesday, without giving further details.

The source declined to be identified because Samsung did not want to
reveal to the public any information about its new product line at
this time.

Samsung would not discuss its detailed product pipeline. "We are
constantly exploring new technologies and developing various form
factors," said company spokeswoman Chenny Kim.

Last month, the New York Times reported that Apple was experimenting
with the design of a device similar to a wristwatch that would operate
on the same platform as the iPhone and would be made with curved
glass.

I wonder how much that will cost! My ears are wide open..
