This one, I really don’t have a use for. I lusted after smart phones for YEARS before I got into a financial position where I felt I could afford/justify the expense. I got a iPhone 5s, and it’s brilliant, I love it, but I need more real estate, so this fall when the contract is up, I’m going bigger with the 6.

The watch, is WAY less real estate. One of my daily uses is watching the weather. I’m constantly zooming IN to see more detail, and a smaller screen becomes silly for this.

My fat fingers won’t get along on this item well, and I don’t need that instant access on my wrist. In fact, I don’t wear watches, and haven’t for decades.

BUT, this is just me. I’m weird enough to be out of the main stream on this item. Looks cool, but I don’t have a mission for it.

It's not unusual at all. We've been more inclined to move away from tiny interfaces. Also, we just don't want to be field testers for a new product. I'd like to see how someone demonstrates the technology is useful in a way that makes my life more convenient. I just can't come up with any way that happens right now, and we've heard about the product for years.

I'm sure it's going to be very useful for some people though.

I had a 5 for years. When the 6+ came out I went and got it. Hated it. Its like a brick. So I took it back and got a 6. Personally I can’t tell much difference between the 5 and 6.
