It was 1996 when I started working at the Cricklewood head office of Peoples Phone [writes Mark Bridge], initially in a sales support role before becoming part of the Marketing team. The company was an independent mobile phone retailer with a growing network of high-street shops and connected customers. In November 1996 the company and its customer base were acquired by Vodafone, which had already taken over the Talkland retail business and was soon to add Astec to its portfolio.

Samsung Electronics has added a new water-resistant smart watch to its portfolio of wearable devices. The Tizen-based Samsung Gear S is equipped with a 2-inch curved Super AMOLED display and 3G + WiFi connectivity, allowing it to work without a smartphone when required. However, it also has a Bluetooth connection that’ll let it synchronise with the user’s main phone.

There’s an on-screen keyboard option as well as voice control and sensors for fitness apps.

JK Shin, CEO and head of IT & mobile communication at Samsung Electronics, said “Samsung is leading this exciting and rapidly developing wearable category through progressive innovation. The Samsung Gear S redefines the idea of the smart wearable and the culture of mobile communication. It will let consumers live a truly connected life anywhere, anytime.”

Announced alongside the Samsung Gear S was the new Samsung Gear Circle Bluetooth headset. Availability of both devices is expected from October.
