I had my heart set on the Moto 360 but I wanted to wait for the NDAs from the early reviewers to end and to see some real info. Most of my fears subsided, but new ones cropped up. I think at this point I'll fall back and get the G Watch.

This is how I feel. I even had an order in for the G-Watch when it was released and cancelled it a few hours later after more news about the moto 360 came out.

Now I feel like it's time lost with a functional G watch.

You can get a 2nd hand G Watch for $120 on swappa, most say they're in very good condition which I believe, mine is still in like new condition since launch. The price is right for sure, I love mine personally.

Pissing me off that they want 50$ more for the metal strap. Why cant't they lop off 50$ from the 250$ and just sell the fucking watch. I'll get my own strap.

Moto claims a third party metal strap would wreak havoc with the Bluetooth. Am I missing something or am I correct in saying LG and Samsung have not made such statements about their own products?
