Re: [iPad] One Reason The Apple Watch Will Succeed

 


Caution in prognostication is the better way.  Safer and wiser, Cricket.

Now, I could see an upper-arm device, or a lavaliere, or something that hugs the underside of the forearm and slides down into the palm, but it's been a while since Apple went out on a limb like that.  Their thing lately has been to let others go first.  And that's been working well for them, financially.

In the meantime, the iPhone 6+ is a nice mobility piece.  'Tis enough, 'twill serve.

Oh dear, after seeing it and using it, that's your conclusion? I'll wait till its out and till Its been used before committing to any such comments.

World changing?  Nah.  If it had been engineered better (smaller and independent of any other hardware), designed better, and not tried to be an iPad on a postage stamp, it could have broken new ground in a useful way, but as it is, it's going to be a brief flash in the pan.  I'd like to think Steve would be embarrassed.

Not me. BUT I can easily see it being a failure and I can very easily see it being world changing. There is such a wide variance in people's views it will be interesting too see how it unfolds.

1. It doesn't look very cool to me,  bit big.

2. It's how useful it will be that is paramount. Tethered to an iPhone, that's fine. 

Novelty vs real time usefulness

I haven't worn a watch for years, but it will be a miracle if I can resist the temptation to buy an Apple Watch when they are released!

Nah.  Nobody wears watches 😑

And it's not beautiful.  It's klunky.

Whatever.  Happy New Year! 🎉
