     I went looking for a watch a couple of years ago.  What I really
wanted was a thin LCD watch.  Interestingly, I found that the Casio
databank watches were the thinnest LCD watches I could find, despite
all the extra functionality.  I ended up getting a DBX-100 because it had
a better keypad (less of a membrane-style keypad) than the others.  The
only feature it lacked that I wanted was a light.  Oh well... the better
keypad was worth it, I think.
     Anyway, I found that I do actually use the databank (to store phone
numbers), but it is annoying enough to have to enter them using the
limited keypad that I don't keep it up to date.  I have all the info
online already, so I too would like some sort of port...
