Still waiting for their Google Glass equivalent. The iPatch.

This means they admitted that they will be releasing an iWatch as everyone suspected. Apple can't seem to make anything stay secret these days...

Most likely the iwatch name was acquired to stop companies using it for other platforms.

Maybe, but would Apple really ignore the rise of the smartwatch market? Sony made one, Samsung is making one, and these rumors have to hold some water for Apple too. They NEED one.

Actually, that would be highly unlikely. Most likely it's for the obvious reason.

I think they don't want to keep it secret. They love when these little information leak to public and gives them free exposure and marketing throughout the blogosphere.

Apple pride them selves on secrecy. Anyone caught leaking details, results in instant sacking.

@In2iti0n - You talk some bull, sometimes. Drop the image of dead man. It doesn't make your comments smart or intelligent.

In2iti0n3948d ago

@evil_element - Sure, that's the official attitude of Apple. But "official" so often equals to "superficial". There's so much below the surface, and it makes so much sense to not be able to see it.
