We knew Orange will be carrying LG’s 3G-enabled watch phone. However, when they announced that at this year’s Mobile World Congress, we haven’t got a clue they’ll sell it for whooping 900 Euros. That’s $1,286, according to today’s exchange rate!
That’s ridiculous and aside from few fancy-schmancy playboys living in the uber-expensive arondismants of Paris, I can’t see this flying. As a matter of fact, I doubt they’ll sell more than 50 of these, unless they subsidize it more heavily and LG eventually makes it more affordable.
If anyone of you is tempted to pour out that much money for a watch phone, we’re eager to hear you reasons. Please make a compelling argument, otherwise we’ll think you’re nuts. 😉
