Citizen announced a new generation of their Bluetooth wrist watch line. Compared the first Citizen Bluetooth Virt watch the company
launched in 2006, the new ones are very compact and look like a normal LCD watch. Early this year Citizen introduced a slightly
updated model, but that one also still had a very small screen.
Features of the new Citizen i:virt Bluetooth watches include display and vibration alarm of incoming calls, incoming e-mail or news.
In collaboration with the Japanese Carrier Softbank Citizen even allows you to read a preview of an email on the Bluetooth wristwatch.
Another fun feature is the ability to trigger the camera of a compatible mobile phone via the watch.
The new Citizen Bluetooth watches will hit the market in Japan in November.

press-release (Japanese).
The Bluetooth watches available from Fossil are not that feature-rich yet and not so compact. Let's see if Fossil can beat Citizen with their next generation (if they actually do another Bluetooth watch generation) of
Bluetooth watches.
