[NFBMT] Dot Watch

[Jim Marks]

Yes, I've heard of this watch.  It would be cool to have a Braille watch
that displays the time in a digital format.  I understand the watch can be
used for other purposes, such as connecting to a smart phone much like the
Apple or Android watches supplement smart phones.  Using this watch, it may
be possible to read text messages and otherwise operate one's smart phone
features.  The last bit of information I heard was that the watch is still
in development, but perhaps it's on the market now.

Has anybody seen anything about this before?  Yes I know I'm behind the
times, and this article came out in 2017.  But this is the first I've heard
of it.
