ABSTRACT:
A personal data assistant (“PDA”) watch uses a “character wheel,” or a “data dial,” to enter information, or characters, into the PDA watch. Such a dial makes the entering of data much quicker by taking advantage of the flexibility of the human wrist. A dial containing the character set disbursed around its circumference can be turned to indicate which character the user wishes to enter. The selection of a particular symbol/character can then be made by depressing the dial or some other input button.
