THE GOOD
With its slimmer design, improved battery life, additional memory, magnetic charger, easy integration with Outlook Calendar, and 12 months of basic services included, the Abacus Smart Watch 2006 is a nice step forward for the smart-watch platform.

THE BAD
There's nothing drastically new here, and Outlook integration isn't included as part of 12 months of free service (you have to pay $20 extra).

THE BOTTOM LINE
Microsoft and Fossil have made some significant improvements in their next-generation Abacus Smart Watch series, but it's still unclear whether the service's features can attract a broad audience.
