You probably know Android as the mobile operating system that this site is named after. However, there's another small company, also named Android, that has been manufacturing watches for ages. With a name like that, it would be foolish for them not to go into the growing smartwatch market, which is exactly what they will be doing. Based on a promotional video, the Android made Android smartwatch, which will be unveiled next month, will make and take phone calls, play your music, and record a voice memo among other features.
In addition, the watch will have pedometer capabilities, and the option of either a digital or analog face. The watch will come in many colors, including orange, black, red, blue and white. Pricing is still to be determined.

A bit embarrassing that a small company that I’ve never heard if beats the big boys into releasing the first stand alone smartwatch.
Just goes to show yet another difference between Google and Apple. Apple would have sued the pants off the Android Watch company by now over their name had they been called the Apple Watch company.
