If Sony Ericsson wanted to make a new sports watch they could of implemented the Live Veiw face into something that actually looks good.
Thats a new Aston Martin and Jaeger creation by the way

My first MBW-150 watch stoped working after 5 month.....so even that it looks good and is build good it is still no gurantee that it will work for long.
Yeah the LED starts to fail. I have the MBW 100 and 150, the 150 is alright but the 100 LED lights are not as bright as they were. They should of carried on with the MBW series but didnt Fossel actually make the watches instead of Sony Ericsson.
My MBW-100's display doesn't work any more. The LED is so week I can hardly see it even in the dark. I've got a brand new watch, but agan after 1,5 yrs it's the same again. SE won't help me again. Sucks big time since I love the watch.
This Live View seems great, but it's far from as good looking as my MBW-100.

Yeah and Sony Ericsson in the UK won't help with the LED's either. Its a shame they haven't continued with the MBW watches as apart from the failing LED's they are good watches.

True I would giess, but on the other hand the MBW-100 seems far from as functional and useful as the Live View. Form over function or function over form, just a matter of taste. |

Live View doesn't have vibrate, that's the most functional thing you could ask for from the MBW-100 when displaying the incoming caller or text. Plus as an actually watch the MBW-100 lasts for years, the strap on that Live View wont last long, it's material, its going to ware easier and get dirty.

There is really nothing to debate here. You can do more with Live View (its expandable through 3:d party apps) than you can with MBW-100, not to mention you can fit more information on Live Views display than on MBW-100's. You don't buy Live View to use it primarily as a watch, you buy it primarily for it's other functions. |

Your the kind of person that will be buying one just because they said it's expandable with third party apps when these useless apps such as checking heart rate can do already on the phone using the same stupid app.
The fact is it's useless it has no vibrate for any notifications, it's also advertised as using in a sports function when it's not even waterproof and is made from plastic lol.

Well Apple can have a 'nano Business watch' so why can't Sony Ericsson
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iXVHWDyGdeo&feature=related
and theres a leather version

and a sports version

Theres actually nothing innovative about Live View, it's just a copy of what already has been seen.

Oh my god it just gets worst 
Think I will stick with a normal watch as all these just look cheap and tacky and will only last 5 minutes.
