I'd like to see wrist straps with solar cells to extend the life of these things.

Accurate time would be a must for me, maybe pull it from internet time

I haven't yet seen anyone wearing "smart" watches of any kind. I'm not sure a watch is where it's at when it comes to "smart" devices.

If I'm carrying a phone, which already has the time on it, why do I have need for another piece of hardware? And when it comes to accessorizing, digital watches are definitely on the low end of the class spectrum; definitely not a fashion statement.

I'll hold off buying a smartwatch until they come with wires which hold the device in place by automatically boring into the skin and linking it with the central nervous system.
