This is v1. Remember what v1 of the iPod did, and how it's progressed to date. Apply that same pattern to this watch and insert mindblown.gif

- Exactly. Like I said: it's early days.pang
- the iPod solved a problemfadein11
- a problem nobody really knew they hadmonospaced
- < what digital music library on the go - I think that was a clear problem solved.fadein11
- yes, but people didn't realize that was an option reallymonospaced
- What's your point? Yeah it wasn't an option, and that's when Apple made the option.iCanHazQBN
- The solved the problem. Even as a kid I wished for something like that long before mp3 players were invented.iCanHazQBN
- Again, all apple is doing is taking the iPhone and creating a million versions of it based on size..iCanHazQBN
- There are a bunch of different sized iphones, ipads, and a now a shrunken iphone called the Apple Watch.iCanHazQBN
- They aren't innovating, like i've been saying. They haven't created anything new since Steve died.iCanHazQBN
- They're just riding his wave until it fizzles out.iCanHazQBN

re: Pebble:
It's 11.5mm thick.
Just imagine that for a second. Wearing it on your hand, like a big fuck-off piece of Lego.
Duplo, even.

^ My Rolex GMT is 12mm deep btw, and that's kind of small these days.
The 'Watch' is smaller than most mechanical watches.
- Yeah, well - not to be rude, but I've always though mechanical posh watches look a bit naff.detritus
- fair enoughkingkong
- So you dislike watch in general?
I'm just trying to offer a better option for people who like the idea of smart watchpango - Imo of coursepango
- No, I used to wear them and still like slimline ones — they're just a bit pointless though, with a mobile in tow.detritus

I'm not sure about the wi-fi / bluetooth signals sticking to my arm 24h/day ... Is there any study out there saying that those watches are dangerous?

Interesting reading about Bluetooth radiation :
http://www.electricsense.com/101…
To sums it up, it's not good.
- so I guess you should never carry a phone, especially in your pocketmonospaced
- totallybenfal99
- @mono - phone in pocket is nothing like against skin - few millimitres away from skin makes all the differencefadein11
- Inchs from your balls. Also you think clothes help? IDIOTmonospaced
- @mono - fuck you. It's a commonly known fact that radiation penetration massively increases when device is touching skin - google it you moron.fadein11
- Commonly known fact that these devices don't emit harmful radiation either. That's my point. Look it up before calling me an idiot. Idiot.monospaced

I am sure all the mega corporations (Apple, Samsung, Verizon, etc...) all know that Bluetooth radiation will eventually give you some variation of cancer. Do you think any corporation gives two fuck about your health? Fuck no, corporations are in business to rape your pockets, period!
