haha I didn't know who it actually was, I like how he reads his extracts though! Still looks like a geek in that photo, it's those glasses and the hair.
But I'll have to see if I can watch his Darkplace series cause that looks interesting.
Hahaha embarrassing statementThis watch is getting more and more stupid as time goes on...
Yeah not imaginative and smart enough to think about the possibilities, luckily Apple had people that are.Hate to say it, but the iWatch (or what little has filtered out) sounds....boring.
Got nothing else to say about it.

All these hirings really make me think this new device won't be launched in 2014... Or maybe in time for Christmas? New Apple device + good price (?) could sell a lot in the holidays.
Seems like a me too product more and more this does. Just copying everyone else. I bet they launch a fitness device that has a tiny screen which just gives you alerts by icons and that's it, no facility to read any messages etc, due to battery life etc. I bet it'll have a microphone so you can use Siri with it instead haha. Tell your iPhone to reply to a text.
Does Philips have any good products? Can't remember the last time I bought something philips, maybe in the 80s
If you think this is a product like anyone else had you need to get a clue hahah. It's a completely new line of tech.
Just now hiring doesn't bode well for a 2014 release.
Apple took their sweet time with both the iPad and the iPhone and I believe they're taking the same care to only release the iWatch when it's something that will blow everybody away.
Many moves are being made on the TV front while several preparatory steps for the iWatch still haven't materialized. For AppleTV, a snowballing speed of new app releases, new content contracts, decreasing reliance on traditional tv networks and increasing popularity of internet based ones (i.e. Netflix), server farm buildout, an impending UI revamp and holding back on Apple Displays. An AppleTV is bursting at the seams to come out.
Something big is coming for TV this year and Apple will not want one key product to steal the spotlight from another.
Timeline:
WWDC2014: New AppleTV UI and app store for developers to start working on. New AppleTV (box) with select experimental iWatch components hidden inside (i.e. a miniaturized chipset).
iOS 8 announcement: Healthbook app revealed as the focus of iOS8. Getting this right will be key to the success of the iWatch. It'll be tested out as an iPhone app first.
iPhone 6 announcement: Experimental parts for the iWatch used inside the new iPhone. A new version of the motion processor chip, a smaller chipset, a big leap in battery efficiency and some sort of wireless charging would be important for an iWatch. If all of these make their way into the iPhone 6, we'll have a good hint that the iWatch is not far behind.
The fact that they're hiring these people now and not 2 years ago shows that the iWatch is a long ways off. They don't hire this guy now for a product that will be released in a couple months.
Anyone intelligent knew this was the device it was going to be from the first rumors, since the first rumors already pointed to expansive biosensors. I've tried to convince numerous morons that thought it would be awful that it wasn't at all designed to tell you time.

The iWatch is going to be incredible.
It's going to combine lots of personalize health data which is huge. This will probably revolutionize the health industry because for the first time in history millions of people will be tracking their health digitally.
Its going to cause behavioral changes in people who use the product, as they will get accustomed to checking their watch every time they work out, diet, wake up, run, meditate, just to see their health levels in real time.
Oh my god this made me laugh so hard!Probably he got hired a year ago or more.
And probably they alrdy have the sensors installed in prototyps but need a guy to read the data coming of that sensor.
If the iwatch can count how much masurbation i need to get an orgasum and track my progression over time, ill buy one on day one.
I've got both a Nike Fuelband and a Pebble watch, neither would I wear to bed. Maybe if I slept on my back for the full sleep like some robot?
Please do explain how Apple's rumoured iWatch sleep monitoring tech will somehow be revolutionary to the next devices sleep monitoring tech..

The only problem with this is, you'd have to have your expensive iWatch on while you sleep. That doesn't sound too appealing to me...

When this thing comes out, is it just going to attractive to old people with health concerns?
Wow, the iWatch keeps sounding better and better. I've gone from no interest to must have over the past few months. The health and fitness stuff is a much bigger draw to me than the weird "smart phone features crammed into a watch" approach we've seen from others. Can't wait for the official reveal!
Yeah, I remember reading somewhere that the iWatch will be at least 50% less retarded than other smart watches.![]()
