Show HN: Version 1.1 of our $99 hackable Bluetooth...
I got to look at one recently. They are a tiny bit bulky, but beautiful. Would like to see an accelerometer in there though. And GPS. (Pretty soon this thing would be an iPhone on your wrist.)

The TI version has an accelerometer - and a higher price tag to accompany it.

Why would you want an accelerometer in your watch?

Presumably to act as a pedometer and sleep analysis tool; think Fitbit.

this. I would rather have a jawbone up to track health, there's very few times I'm wishing i had a watch to give me caller-id info.
