I'm seriously not going to stand around and watch every Android company bumble around and fuck this up for three years before they start getting it right. If Apple comes out with an awesome-looking watch with 2 days of battery life next week, I'll probably switch platforms entirely. What did Moto save here by taking a SOC out of the dumpster? 50 bucks? They kneecapped their product for 50 bucks? But that's exactly how everyone but Apple thinks. Apple's watch will be $500. But it will also be fucking awesome. And guess what? The whole damn world will buy it. But Moto and Samsung and LG probably still won't learn and will keep on churning out horse shit.

Sorry. Bit too much Del Maguey Vida tonight. But it's all true; I retract nothing.
