Allerta

Allerta’s inPulse smartwatch has been all the buzz for a while now. Things have gotten even, well, buzzier for the phone however. The company has recently allowed for applications to be released that make the most out of the bluetooth-enabled device. One such application has just dropped which adds feature-rich Facebook functionality right to your watch. Not bad.

This app was created by inPulse’s very own Lead Designer Eric Migicovsky, and as such it is extremely user-friendly. It allows you to grab a list of nearby locations off the phone, and then check in with just a click of a button. Kind of neat. To get it, all you have to do is grab the code off of the company’s website.

Allerta got the nod to execute RIM first BlackBerry watch. Using Bluetooth, the watch syncs with the device to deliver incoming emails, text messages, and other alerts to you wrist. This is a viewing only device as messages cannot be composed on it. The watch is a full metal body, 1.3 OLED screen, vibrate, microUSB, and rechargeable. The unit is said to last up to 4 days of normal use. Due to ship in February, the price of $149.00 is not too bad. The Allerta inPulse is an interesting device, let’s see where this goes.
