iWatch wishes

Hey there!

There have been some rumours about a new watch-like device from Apple. This got me thinking about what would be some cool features to have on a device like that. What would you want to see on an "iwatch"?

I would like to see something like an extension of Maps, so you wouldn't have to take you're phone out every 10 minutes while trying to find a place in a new city, or maybe in the rain. A kind of alert when your phone is too far away would also be great. (Casio seems to have made a watch that does this)

If you think that a digital device on your wrist is a bad idea, than there's no need to post. But if you have some cool new idea of what a digital device on your wrist could do... well then, geek-out!

Cheers!

I definitely think they could make a great product in form o a watch. But if you think about it as a watch it doesn't make sense right now. Just like if you thought the IPhone would be just another phone with internet connectivity. Why would you want to go on the internet on a 4 inch screen when you have PC's. Why would you want to recharge every day as opposed to once week, like you would a Nokia phone.

It's when you add innovations like Apps that the whole product is in deed "reinvented". (As much as i hate that word) Then the internet makes sense on a 4 inch device. The same thing goes for the IPad. Retrospectively it will make sense for everybody, but it takes vision to create a new product like that. That being said, I don't think a watch-like device would be as huge as the Iphone or the Ipad are.
