    Any time I read about smart watches they never mention what the damn thing does (apart from telling the time). It seems to be purely a case of having technology on your watch because we can, without it doing anything useful.

                Guess I am late to the party.

                Computers have been intelligent for a long time now. It just so happens that the program writers are about as effective as a room full of monkeys trying to crank out a copy of Hamlet. The interesting thing about software is it can not reproduce, until it can.

                                      It basically acts as a remote control for your iphone. Instead of pulling out your phone every time you receive a notification, you can now read them on your wrist. There's also an watch to watch scribble feature where you can draw on your watch and it will send the drawing to the other person. It also has some basic pulse rate monitoring and movement tracking so you can see how active you are. It was mentioned that it requires an iPhone, and the health monitoring and tracking appeared to be done from the iphone itself. The part I was most interested in was glossed over at the very end of the presentation. They mentioned that the apple watch works with the iPhone 5 and up. The iPhone 6 and 6+ have NFC payment options (I think they call their service apple pay) available. They use a special chip to create the payments. Tim said that the apple watch had everything in it to use apple pay. I wanted to know if users of an iPhone 5 or 5s will be able to use apple pay with an apple watch.

                                        I'll probably feel better after a movement.
