Orange, the exclusive UK carrier for the
eagerly anticipated GD910 watch / wrist / just plain cool phone, has this morning announced the date, cost and location of availability. After plenty of talk of
meteoric prices, it turns out the GD910 will be even
cheaper than we thought, coming in at £500 ($825) on Orange's Pay As You Go service, meaning no contract tie-ins to worry about. Limited time availability and only one device per customer don't suggest an overwhelming amount of stock -- or that the price will hold -- so if you must jump on the cool train, the place to be is the Orange shop at Bond Street Station, London, 9am sharp. If you really can't make it, there will be another limited batch of handsets to be had via the Orange online shop at some point in September -- and we've snagged a video for you as well, just past the break.

I want one!
That price doesn't make any sense. This is not a high-quality phone, nor a high-quality watch. For that price, I can buy a nice, unlocked smartphone AND a nice watch. The only reason to charge that much is is diminutive size and the exclusivity of it being a wrist watch. I thought we were beyond charging more for something small after the RAZR - just look at netbook prices even.
Just wait until Samsung copies this and puts it out for a more reasonable price.
Wobbly, gadgets like this aren't for the rational, sensible reasoners within us. They're for the kids in us. And I'm gonna get the kids in me something AWESOME if this thing drops Stateside.
Buying a LG GD910 watch phone is a dream. The design is mind-blowing. It is very light in weight. You will be amazed by the amazing touch screen. The video quality is just average. The music player is one best thing, sound quality is very satisfying. Overall the combination of watch and phone makes this device look fantastic irrespective of its average features.
