If it is anything like my Fossil Abacus (wrist top Palm PDA and watch) it will need to be charged frequently.  In the case of a phone, I can't imagine getting too many calls in before needing to recharge, radio/cell transmitters still like to use lots of current. 

I love technology, but until battery chemistry really catches up to the ability to create smaller and smaller devices I'll have to pass unfortunately.  I gave up on the Abacus, as useful as it was to me at work, because it needed to be charged as soon as I got home. With heavy use the batteries lasted about 8-9 hours max, and that was just a PDA.  If I worked a long day (frequently as an IT guy), I wouldn't have a watch display by the time I got home :X
