Samsung Smart Watch

Maybe this is more of a chess move... if Apple were to put this out first, what is the chance it would be seen as visionary? Then Samsung would have to put out something similar in response.

By putting this out first, they deny a potential market to Apple as they continue to trounce them in the market.

The problem I have is that everyone will end up hearing my conversation? That or use a Bluetooth at which point having this as a watch loses the point.

Not a phone, but they were way ahead of Samsung.

I stand corrected... maybe this is a response to Apple?

My guess would be they caught wind of the iWatch and jumped first. The nano watch was way ahead of Samsung. I think the iWatch will crush their attempt.

We have yet to see the iWatch, but we have seen that Samsung's time-to-market is much better than Apple's, making at least seem that Apple now is reacting to whatever Samsung is releasing. Anyway you see it, after watching the second video Kopf posted, I can say that I will not be buying a smart watch simply because I rarely use my phone for the 6 things they mention. It is simply useless without a workable keyboard.

We are old. The noobs, however, may adopt this more quickly.

It will probably use voice recognition, but I have yet to find any phone that understands Rican very well.
