Earlier this week at a press event during the 2009 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, an LG representative showed us the company's new GD910 touchscreen watch phone. Sporting features that even Dick Tracy and James Bond never had access to, the new GD910 tries to offer nearly full featured phone functionality inside a very compact wrist watch form factor.

A swipe gesture based touchscreen user interface allows users to move from screen to screen easily, and cool tech like HSDPA data, speech to text/text to speech, and a music player round out the relatively complete feature set. The GD910 supports both regular Bluetooth headsets as well as stereo Bluetooth headphones, and can even manage 3G video calls. The GD910's touchscreen display measures 1.43" across the diagonal, and the entire device weighs only 85g.

Because of the demo model's pre-production status, we were unable to show you some of the navigation and transition screen effects in the video below, but we can tell you that everything seemed to work quite speedily and smoothly.

LG has yet to reveal complete pricing and availability information for the GD910, but the company did hint that the device would likely show up in European markets first.
