Spot Watch is Dead
After a 4 year run Microsoft has pulled the plug on the Spot Watch. There are no more models available for purchase or even warranty replacement. I guess you could have seen this coming as the applications and content available for the spot watches have not been updated for long time and the entire line of Abacus Smart Watch 2006 models have not been in stock for several months. Jon Canan, program manager for MSN Direct, who delivered the news on SpotStop.com: "As of recently, the Smart Watches with MSN Direct have sold out and are no longer for sale. While we continue to move forward with MSN Direct and seeking out new opportunities for devices that would benefit from the MSN Direct service, we, along with our watch partners, do not have immediate plans to create a new version of the Smart Watch, as we are focused on other areas of our business. We will maintain support of our watch customers and continue to deliver information to the watches, but we do not plan to increase our investment in the watch business going forward."
Huh - looks like a cool watch. I have never seen or heard of it before. I guess I’m too late!
