BlackBerry Allerta inPulse Smartwatch Coming Soon

Allerta has announced the inPulse smartwatch for BlackBerry mobile phones. The Allerta inPluse is a cool looking wrist watch that will display important phone notifications on your wrist, without having to take your phone out of your pocket or bag. If the notifaction is not important, then no need to bother fishing around for your BlackBerry.

The Allerta inPluse use  Bluetooth technology, to connect to BlackBerry devices and displays SMS, email, and call notifications. It can display full messages right on its 1.3-inch OLED display and features vibrating notifications for incoming calls. Calendar alerts also appear on the wrist device. It even automatically sets the time using data from the BlackBerry phone to which its connected.

The Allerta inPluse features a rechargeable 150mAh lithium-ion battery that will last for 4 days, based upon getting 20-30 updates per day. It will support all BlackBerry devices with BlackBerry OS v4.3 and higher. It’s coming in at around £90 ($149) when launched in the US in February. No UK release date has been given but we’d expect it will show up in the UK at some point in the future, especially if it’s a success in the US.
