Apple tried releasing a tablet years before they became popular and it flopped because it was ahead of its time. The watch might e the same.
Yeah, that was the same for their early line of computers, but AHEAD of their time is one thing, but this is not ahead this is a 'throwback' to a time before tablets, cell phones and computers. That's almost as bad as making a new and super cool typewriter without a screen that could attach to your leg. Image, a machine that enables what you type to go directly on the paper, no need for a printer, cords or additional power -- wow, can you believe that? Only $800
The iwatch doesn't represent radical innovation, it's simply a renovation.
60 Million are expected to sell worldwide, my guess is that will be cut in half in year two if it gets there.
I really wish someone who ordered one chimes in, I want to hear that other side.

I don't get the hype but I haven't worn a watch in years and the main reason is because they became redundant by mobile phones. It's like why would you need to carry around a compass or thermometer around anymore when you've just got a phone that can do all that. No need.
agree, agree, agree ... I think this is a matter of the 'emperor has no clothes on' and no one wants to tell the CEO this isn't too bright.
