An Australian watch expert was commenting that he was absolutely floored that in the over 100 years of wristwatch history no one had come up with such an elegant interchangeable strap/watch and connection system

Reminiscent of the stupid hype we heard regarding Apple's "innovative" magnetic connector which could be found on millions of rice cookers made in Asia.

Apple owns the patents on the magnetic power connector both here and in Europe, and in all Asian countries, Ethan, contrary to your claims. Where are the magnetic power connectors on any other make notebook computers preventing them from being pulled on the floor by the cable being tripped over?
