This is even cooler than Dick Tracy’s watch.

According to the author, Once I learned the basics, I found a surprising number of things I could do faster or better on my wrist than by pulling out my phone:

• Making sure I don’t miss that email from mom, or another VIP.

• Dictating a text message.

• Communicating an emotion, either through a set of cheesy animated icons—I’m talking jazz hands in mime gloves—or tapping with two fingers to literally share a simulation of your heartbeat. Maybe we’ll get to blow a kiss in Version 2.

• Buying something: Tap twice on the watch’s side button to activate Apple Pay.

• Checking on the weather or news through “glances,” available by swiping up from the bottom of the screen.

• Asking virtual assistant Siri a question.

• Controlling music, and sometimes even video, on my phone, Bluetooth headset or Apple TV.

• Taking a photo: A wrist app gives a live view of your iPhone’s high-quality rear camera—so you can set the phone up for a better selfie.

• Answering a call: Talking to your wrist might look funny, but it’s a remarkably good speakerphone, and you can switch over to your iPhone mid-call if you’d like.

Funny - I’ve been able to do all those things from my watch for a year now...at half the price. Apple missed on this one.

The thing about the APPLE WATCH is that it is not a watch ... :-) ...

Now that's important. Somebody tell Obama!
