It\u2019s been interesting to watch the coverage and analysis concerning Apple Watch. It does do this, it doesn\u2019t do that, it\u2019s pokey, it doesn\u2019t work with sleeve tattoos, and, of course, it\u2019s really expensive considering that it has no killer app!<\/p>\n
Nonetheless, I think it is a remarkable, in fact, a stunning achievement. <\/p>\n
Think of it: here\u2019s a device that has multiple gigabytes of storage,\u00a0both Bluetooth and Wi-Fi radios, a fast CPU, a bunch of sophisticated sensors, a microphone, a high resolution full color video display, a sophisticated touch sensitive interface, a rechargeable battery capable of running it for a full day \u2014 and all of this in a package that\u2019s no bigger than a typical wristwatch. A package that, in the case of my series 7000 space gray aluminum\u00a0Apple Watch Sport, weighs just barely over an ounce \u2014 heck, the lightweight fluoroelastomer band weighs 25% per more than the case and the whole thing on my wrist weighs less than 2\u00bd ounces. And it\u2019s less than 1\u00bd inches wide, and only 1\u2154 inches tall.<\/p>\n
This is science fiction technology.<\/p>\n
