Wearables has huge potential
Mar 12, 2015,04:10 AM
Some people mentioned google glass and how it failed, but google glass has different issues all together. First of all nobody likes to put glasses or a device on their face if they don't have to, and for those who don't mind, well, other people do mind, they look at you like you are a nut case.
Wrist wearables are different, it is far less intrusive than a device on your face, and it has a closer contact with your skin, which creates a host of possibilities.
Apple is trying to sell a new way of behaviour, that's the real selling point, not a watch. How it will evolve, nobody knows, probably not even Apple. People who invented computer and cellphones could not have foreseen all the things it can do nowadays and how they have become a necessity. The same may applies to smartwatches, it may take a little time, but it wouldn't surprise me if one day they also become a necessity.
Many of you will buy one one day, just don't know it yet.
