No I'm not overlooking that at all. It's horrible. But again, I'm just comparing it to the gear s which is quite possibly the ugliest watch I've ever seen.
The future of the iPod
Am I the only one who thinks the "iwatch" will in fact be the new generation "iPod". The iPod makes up 1 percent of their revenue. What will they do when it drops below 1 percent in a few years? Kill off the iPod line? They have to evolve that product line some how. Turn it in to a wearable. I think this is the answer. iPod. iPhone. iPad. No more, no less. No fourth category of device.

I'd take these square shape over a flat tire design any day of the week.
The dual face Jaeger-LeCoultre Reverso is sublime. And it comes in 38mm.
The rectangular thing looks to be the charger.

Don't forget to recharge that thing because then you'll lose the event.

Very funny.
How much that thing costs?
How much you will pay for an iWatch?
Thank you for your participation.
It basically makes me think the iWatch will look like a rounded corner evolved version of the iPod nano that could be worn as a watch.
I think it's safe to say the iWatch has been development for as long as when Apple noticed people "wearing" their nanos and decided to update it's form factor to an unwearable shape to make way for whatever they're showing tomorrow.
My bet is that the "iWatch" will actually be called iPod and take over the brand.
You couldn't move that glass of bubbles out of the way could you and post us a clearer shot?
wow, i haven't seen 38mm men's watches for a long time. most are in the 40-44 range these days. rolex skydweller is 42mm, rolex submariner is 40mm, yachtmaster1 is 40mm, yachtmaster2 is 44mm. AP ROO are 42mm. hublot BB are 44mm. you get the point. 38mm is sooooo 1990... the time i got my cartier pasha (38mm). it's now being worn by my girl. lol.

I'd imagine it relates to the use of the device rather than its construction, e.g. you can rotate it, have multiple UI elements from different apps at the same time etc. As in "a flexible user interface, like MacOSX."

This one looks like it was made in 1920 and it's a very well preserved museum piece. And also something like someone from the Addams family might be wearing. Does it make an ominous bang sound at midnight ?
Not to mention it probably cost a ton, and it's not very functional, basically like a scam watch. It appears it has no seconds hand, no date, no nothing
