to be honest, I'm happy for him, but the idea is hardly new...I mean Sony already had a funcitoning Android version of this type of watch a few last year, and just released a new version a few months back. The only thing that makes this different, is that it (kinda) works for iPhone. The text message notifications don't even show up on the watch, when using it with iPhone.
I glad to see a UW grad out there hustling and making dough, but I'm really confused as to why so many people are jumping at this watch?
@4 Probably because it's funded by mostly American money. Either that, or he got incorporated and found some loophole.

Good for this guy. How is he legally able to base his company in Palo Alto as a Canadian, though?

It's a cool idea. I'd totally get one of those if I had a smartphone...
