Casio G-Shock GW7900B-1 Watch

The Casio G-Shock series watches have been known for their toughness and durability. They are considered as the best choice for athletes engaged in extreme sports or just by people who are simply reckless. Casio has continued to create and design better G-Shock watches and the new GW7900B-1 model is no different.

The Casio G-Shock GW7900B-1 Watch is actually part of the G-Rescue series revamped with some added features. For one, it has an integrated solar panel that continuously recharges its high capacity battery when out in the sun. This would make battery changes a thing of the past.

The G-Shock GW7900B-1 also has a built-in radio system that receives time calibrating signals from six different transmission stations scattered around the globe. This means that time is accurately calibrated at all times wherever you may be. Other features include a power saving function, tide and moon data, stopwatch and shock resistance. It is available at Casio for US$150.

eZ430-Chronos Sports Watch from Texas Instruments

Texas Instruments takes development platform to the next level, as it now comes in a much smaller and more convenient package. The eZ430-Chronos is the world's first customizable development environment packed within a sports watch.

The eZ430-Chronos comes with all the bells and whistles for your hardware and software development needs so you can easily develop network applications wirelessly and with ultra-low power, whatever your programming expertise may be. It includes Texas Instrument's SimpliciTI and BM Innovations' Blue Robin RF protocols that enable developers to establish wireless links right out of the box.

It is also equipped with a pedometer and a heart rate monitor. Why you ask? We don't know, but it sure looks good to jog around while configuring your Linux.

The eZ430-Chronos wireless development platform and sports watch is now available at Texas Instruments' online store for only US$49. Seriously, it sounds quite a steal.
