Seems like just another increment in the ever-growing gadget continuum. Phones have gotten so big that they had to add a new segment beneath them in size - sort of like compact cars.

I still strongly believe that smart watches are a dead end technology and that there is no way to make them do the things you would really want them to do without massive leaps in technology (Star Wars-style holographic projection?). I don't care if Apple or Samsung is making them. Apple is not magic and they cannot defy the laws of physics - there is only so much space to work with. An Apple smart watch would be only marginally better than a Galaxy Gear because the form factor is too limiting for it to be anything more than a toy.
