    Well that's a good start, the video isn't working :D

    And no - I doubt I'll be buying one, since I'd also need to buy an iPhone to be able to use most of the functions. £900 for a watch is a bit out of my budget....

    Not once you've added the £539 for the iPhone to go with it...and that's just the base model! :eek:

    Also I am write in thinking that they've designed this thing purely for right-handers? The "digital crown" thing is on the right hand side of the watch, which is fine for those that wear their watch on their left wrist. Becomes a right faff when you wear a watch on your right wrist like me (I know. I'm weird). Surprised Apple have missed that oversight - they're normally good at the design side of things... :(

    I can't see the point of a watch you need to charge every day or 2. Dick Tracy had a use for a wrist phone but I haven't seen any real world use for one. Solution looking for a problem as far as I am concerned.

    I've had a play with the Samsung one, and my mate has the original phone watch, the pebble.
    Impressive bits of kit (although the pebble is not colour). I guess if you have a job/hobby where you can't get your phone out, and have an overwhelming need to stay constantly connected, then they're useful...... the only use I've found is to wait until it's his turn at skittles, then send him a text so his hand vibrates just as he's about to bowl...... hours of fun!!!
