People are still concerned about the Watch and how it will hold up. This is mostly due to the mixed reviews and BS journalism (Nilay Patel, anyone?) that it has attracted. Anyways, I came across this review over the weekend and find it the most comprehensive, far-sighted and intelligent assessment of the product. Supplemented with a try-on experience at the Store, I think it will answer most of the questions posted on here.

Check it out and let us know what you think:

It's a good review, but he really doesn't even touch on a lot of things, like most of the UI, so I don't think it can be called comprehensive at all. I believe he is working on more.
