E-Ten’s G500 is aimed at power users, with top-of-the-line specs that include a 2.9-inch QVGA display, a 400MHz Samsung processor, 1.3-megapixel camera, SiRFstar III GPS, 128MB ROM, 64MB RAM, Bluetooth, miniSD card slot, and quad-band GSM functionality. This is what Phonearena had to say:
I want to remind you that this is a sophisticated device and it is one of great complexity, which is not necessarily a bad thing, but it means that it requires a higher commitment level from its user. If you are not familiar with using a PC or with the available managing software on the market, you will struggle in the beginning

First introduced in early 2003, the OnHandPC has just been discontinued. This nifty gadget combined a digital watch, scheduler, expense manager, calculator, timer, games, and more, all into a small PDA watch. The emergence of Smartphones most likely contributed to its demise.
From the article: “The OnHandPC has the power and memory of a Palm m100 in the size of a wrist watch. Batteries last up to several months which is pretty good compared to other devices like a Palm.”
