At Dreamforce 2014, Black Eyed Pea’s Will.i.am just unveiled the Puls, a smart wristband that can send texts and emails or take phone calls thanks to a mirrored SIM card. The Puls, designed and manufactured by his own wearable tech company, i.am+, is powered by an Android-based platform and connects to the Internet not only via WiFi, but also via 3G—it works exclusively with AT&T in the US and O2 in the UK. Whether this newcomer can use the celebrity effect to make a splash in the already crowded wearable market remains to be seen.
