I remember the moment I realized smartwatches had a chance at being the next big thing in mobile.

The first pocket-watches showed up in the 1500′s, and became popular in America in the 1830′s. Wrist-watches didn’t begin replacing gold-chained pocket-watches until the 1920′s, and electronic watches ...

Around here, we’re no strangers to wrist-worn smart devices. From bare-bones Bluetooth sport watches to full-on smartphones condensed to wearable size, we’ve seen them all. Problem is, we haven’t been all that impressed by what we’ve seen. Whether by halfhearted design or a misguided quest for all-encompassing functionality, most of the intelligent watches we’ve strapped on have very ...
