[Electronics-talk] Linux and smart watch

[Jim Barbour]

Hey Everyone,

Ben, The picture of the watch clearly shows 4 cells, but the rest of your questions are interesting.

The Linux conversation will likly get more traction on the nfbcs list. Several of us on that list make our living on Linux.

I haven't used Orca in several years, but it certainly wasn't a very good linux screen reader then.

Generally, I recommend some type of terminal based option for using Linux, either an ssh client from windows, or a Linux based terminal screen reader such as yasr (yet another screen reader)

Personally, I want a watch to last for 24hrs or more.  Can it be recharged on the move i.e. does it come with a portable charger.  Also, when will it be available? and What is the exact price? I followed the link provided but couldn't find quick answers to these questions, and I have little patience for wading through web pages looking for information buried within links.
