Yeh, agree with the fad. What a lot of people probably don't know is that it uses your iPhone for ANY web-connected services. Basically, it's saving you from taking your phone out of your pocket unless you're at home on your wifi network. I'll probably still get one though, because I'm lazy as shit and think it's a cool gadget.
Other than that, the other services it provides your iPhone already does or aren't really that necessary -- like drawing on your Watch with friends -- just a lot of dickbutts being drawn. With having to charge it every night, I can totally see this flopping until it gets significantly better unless something drastic happens with it. First gen though -- something to expect as with any new device or technology that doesn't serve a very specific purpose -- like the iPod whose purpose was music.
I like the idea of Apple Pay, just not sold on it yet. Not sure I want to give away my $190k plus benefits to hackers just yet.

Is Apple Stock the New Microsoft?
The two tech companies share some striking similarities ... and AAPL emulating MSFT wouldn't be a wholly bad thing.

If the stock market made sense, then it would be more predictable and the commoners would get better returns.

"All-day battery life is based on 18 hours with the following use: 90 time checks, 90 notifications, 45 minutes of app use, and a 30-minute workout with music playback from Apple Watch via Bluetooth, over the course of 18 hours."
People say that it does so much more than tell time! Aside from notifications, it looks like you can use apps for about 75minutes, maybe 1.5 hours, total, before it needs to be charged. This, of course, when the battery is still pretty new.
I foresee some complaints from users.
- Until version 2 which will have much better battery life, then time to re-buy it.CygnusZero4

I also see a possibility of Apple making moves into more automation. They've already integrated Siri into some high-end vehicles, so it's a logical jump to the home. Siri-style interaction in the home would be interesting and innovative. Many companies are invested in home automation, but not many have done it in an elegant way. I know Siri isn't the definition of elegant, but I think there's a way to make it more useful by taking it out of the phone and into our homes.
- If I interacted with my home via Siri I'd prob burn it down. Sorry to say it but thats another thing Android does betterfadein11
