It’s hard to know with what to be more impressed — the watch, the technology, the design, the demo video, even the product videography that went into the video is amazing. Apple still has it after Jobs — albeit, clearly, this product has been in development for years. What I find myself wondering, is how many things will this disrupt? I cringe for watchmakers (which have taken a beating from smartphones already) and fitness specialty watches. Will this cannibalize, a bit, even smart phone usage? With payment, what will I do with my Coin, which I haven’t even received yet, let alone the phone payment options? Although…you still need an iPhone to use this iWatch. “Unfortunately”, I have an Android device, so I find myself wondering, who will/could develop a device even close this cool? Samsung? HTC? Well, maybe some cobbled subset given enough time. Until then, I live with my Ironman and Tissot trusted timepieces, (who uses those anymore?) The “iWatch” looks pretty cool, but I did buy an Apple Newton back in the 90’s. We’ll see.
