Exhausted
I cannot tell you how sick I am of reading the moron responses to this concept. "People don't wear watches." People didn't walk around with tablets before either.. what is your point?! It is seriously the most narrow-minded, creatively lacking response I can imagine. Oh, and here's another one I love-- "that (smart-watches) are ugly." Yes, many of them are. And Apple's will be drool-worthy. Again, Apple will make the thing you (apparently MANY of you), didn't think you wanted, and make you realize how much you needed it. It will take something that others are fumbling at, and do it RIGHT.
It's not a "watch," it's a gps, fitness, app-running, music playing (of course there will be a headphone jack), bluetooth connected, call-taking, notification-displaying mouse/tv/gaming motion-controlled remote, NFC-wallet, siri-enabled EVERYTHING. Instead of taking out your phone every five seconds, you can just check your watch to see if it's really a call or text that's important. And hell, if it's quick, you can just put it on speakerphone and take the call right there. And here's a real mind-blower, if they wanted to, they could include cellular, and 85% of the time, you could leave the house WITHOUT your cellphone! It is the "tablet" to your "desktop."
How can you be a fan of apple and yet have SO LITTLE IMAGINATION?! It's freaking pathetic.
I guarantee you, this device is coming, and it's going to be a massive, massive hit. I'm guessing we'll see it in 2014/2015 though.
I'm sorry for the rant, but I see these dumb-ass comments over and over, and I just can't take it any longer.
And try actually READING (or better yet, thinking) before you dump on an idea. This is one article that elaborates on the iWatch concept (
