Ho hum, Apple released a Watch on Friday. I haven’t see this kind of nerd frenzy since Google Glass finally reached its first Explorers.
The Watch has transcended nerd-only fandom to reach regular people’s consciousness too, e.g. when I wore the Basis Peak, several people asked if it was *the* Watch.
Well, Noel (@noelportugal) and Thao (@thaobnguyen) are both test-driving their Watches now, so look for their initial impressions soon.
Here’s a sneak peak from Noel:
We’re definitely ready for the Watch, since our approach to wearable and other devices has been set for a while. Stay tuned for pictures when when we get our stuff rolling on the actual Watch.
We’re not alone squashing Watch bugs and ironing out inconsistencies. Lots of Watch developers are scrambling now that the actual device is in-hand because the Watch Simulator can only take you so far.
And don’t worry, we still have lots of love for Android Wear. I just got a Moto 360, which was on sale for $179 the day everyone was preordering the Apple Watch.
Our philosophy is harmony. Check it, Noel’s Samsung Gear Live happily announced that his Apple Watch was shipping.
Lots of love for all our gadgets.
