In fact the watches are powered by Smart Personal Object Technology (SPOT) particularly in backend. This technology was introduced by Microsoft in 2002, and the content can be transmitted through FM broadcasting. It is really big bonus for the smart watch holders to access news, weather, sports, horoscopes, Microsoft Outlook, MSN Instant Messenger, etc on their watches. SPOT has a supporting network that ensures it is "always on." This network will provide coverage in most major North American cities.

Now the content is moved over 200 channels of information to smart watches and other SPOT-enabled objects through the Microsoft Direct Band Network. And also this content can be received in 100 metropolitan areas in the US and five major cities in Canada. MSN Direct can be used by people to buy, activate and administer smart watches. If you need to create a profile using a free .NET accounts then you have to activate a smart watch. Then you can select the channels that will be sent to your smart watch after set up your account.
