Bluetooth trade association, the Bluetooth Special Interest Group showcased a range of gadgetry at its annual Gift Guide Event, ready for the Christmas stocking season (yes, it's on the way again already).

Mobile maker Sony Ericsson was showing off a couple of Bluetooth watches that pair with your phone and vibrate when a call is incoming, as well as displaying the caller's name on the digital display. Calls can be rejected or muted via the watch, which also has music control and volume adjustment keys. There's SMS alerts too so no more rummaging in your bag to check your messages.

Sony Ericsson's MBW-150 is pictured above.
