It said the new product would be the world's first wearable PC. A company statement said the watch, called the Ruputer, can download data that includes text and pictures from other personal computers. The wristwatch PCs will be sold with three software applications that run on Microsoft Windows 95 operating system, it said. Watches come equipped with a 16-bit central processing unit and 128 kilobytes of main memory, it said.

Secure Cell Phones for State
by John Young 17 Dec '03

17 Dec '03

U.S. State Dept Press Briefing today: Briefer: James Rubin Now, I have a piece of show-and-tell for you, which I do rarely around here. But I thought this was interesting enough, even for you cynical and jaded journalists. This is a secure cell phone. Lieutenant General Kenneth Minihan, Director of the National Security Agency, presented Secretary Albright with a bank of Motorola Cipher-Tac 2000 security modules to provide secure cellular communications. This state of the art secure voice cellular technology will offer the highest level of security wherever and whenever the Secretary and her top advisors need to protect their communications. So when you see us carrying this beast around, rather than the slim-line phones we usually like to use, you'll know that's because we're trying to have a secure call. That is not only for the obvious good reason that we want to make sure nobody is interfering, but we also want to make sure that nobody is making transcripts and passing them around for a variety of perfidious reasons. So this here is the original, first secure cell phone to be delivered to Secretary Albright, and we thought you guys might get a kick out of that. ----- Would anyone know the security technology of this unit and its support system? And how it compares to those of competitors in the US and outside?
