Samsung's device is expected to be an accompaniment to a smartphone, rather than a standalone device with its own sim card.

IMHO that's what makes this device uninteresting.

Yeah. Maybe they're trying to lower expectations. If it had smartphone functionality, it would be more convenient than having a smartphone in your pocket.
