Will.i.am's Puls wristband has its own 3G, support from AT&T

<b>Will.i.am has just revealed the Puls at Dreamforce 2014, a smartwatch that doesn't need to be tethered to a phone to send texts, emails or make and take phone calls. </b><br /> <table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto; text-align: center;"><tbody> <tr><td style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzCHmOGSCzZRao2beVsGgRmxa8YvjLgu3fl-7z6UC59FUJsxagJZSuaSALABggccP_UEvfMcBo3xwOnNUUs67f5Vkc1xCYCDr0iuB29maqOx4Z-5Vd_Oll9xWxL2cRWwM7J89QgIcT2-ty/s1600/Will.i.am-Puls-tech24h.blogspot.com.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: auto; margin-right: auto;"><img alt="alt" border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzCHmOGSCzZRao2beVsGgRmxa8YvjLgu3fl-7z6UC59FUJsxagJZSuaSALABggccP_UEvfMcBo3xwOnNUUs67f5Vkc1xCYCDr0iuB29maqOx4Z-5Vd_Oll9xWxL2cRWwM7J89QgIcT2-ty/s1600/Will.i.am-Puls-tech24h.blogspot.com.jpg" title="Will.i.am's Puls wristband has its own 3G, support from AT&T" /></a></td></tr> <tr><td class="tr-caption" style="text-align: center;">Will.i.am's Puls wristband has its own 3G, support from AT&T</td></tr> </tbody></table> <div> <div> In fact, Will kept saying it's not a watch, because smartwatches don't typically come with SIM cards, which the Puls does have (it presumably shares your phone number), along with speakers and a touchscreen display that curves along with its body, making the device look more like a cuff than a traditional watch. The Puls (a product out his wearable tech company, i.am+) has 16GB of storage onboard, 1GB of RAM, GPS, a battery that goes around the bracelet, pedometer and accelerometer, all powered by an Android-based platform and a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor. It connects to the internet not only via WiFi, but also via 3G, which means it has carrier partners: the Puls works with AT&T in the US and O2 in the UK.<br /> <br /> As we've mentioned in the past, the watch comes with a music streaming service baked into it. It also has a voice assistant (another Siri rival, if you will) that can remind you to call people or of an event, wake you up, among other tasks similar programs can do, as well as a fitness app that monitors your workouts. Other than the watch itself, Will.i.am and his team have also designed accessories to go it: a jacket with battery packs that can charge the Puls so long as it touches the sleeve (each jacket can provide two-and-a-half days of power), and a backpack with speakers that also weighs you and tells you how many steps you've taken in a day. The musician/entrepreneur didn't mention how much the Puls and its accessories will cost, but the wristband itself will be available this holiday season in select AT&T stores.</div> </div> <div> <br /></div> <div> <br /></div>

Whether or not you're bent on using Now from the start, the FAQ is a handy primer for all the less-than-obvious things the PS TV can do -- it's worth a trip to the source link if you're at all curious.</div> </div>
