I am not sure the Apple Watch has WiFi. It doesn't need it. Just needs a connection to the iPhone, probably Bluetooth Smart.

I don't like the wireless charging. I would have preferred a Magsafe connector just like the MacBook, so that you don't have to carry a second charger and perhaps could charge faster. I assume it was an aesthetic choice.

I hope there will be third party watch faces. I'd like a Heuer "Monaco" face.

Red, does your Gearfit reliably measure your heart rate during hard exercise? I've heard the wrist optical sensors have a hard time with that. Also, does it have to be positioned precisely on your wrist to read HR?

3 days battery life would be barely tolerable. To me.
