The content, which is moved over 200 channels of information to smart watches and other SPOT-enabled objects, 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. To activate a smart watch, you need to create a profile using a free .NET account. Once the Account is set up, you can select the channels that will be sent to your smart watch.
