Will.i.am will now reveal his brand new gadget on Wednesday night in San Fransisco during Salesforce.com's Dreamforce event, ahead of Apple's upcoming event.

According to Engadget.com, the device creator claims the gadget can make and take calls, even if it is not connected to a phone. It also has Bluetooth, WiFi as well as Facebook, Instagram and Twitter apps.

The Telegraph also says the new smartwatch has a curved screen and can store music locally, though it might come with a digital music service, as well.

Will.i.am has supposedly convinced music labels to sign a contract with help from UK firm 7digital, promising them equal treatment unlike other services that offer lower deals to indie labels.
