Remember when digital watches came out? They were all the nerd rage. Then calculator watches? You could identify a nerd by his calculator watch and pocket protector. (nothing against pocket protectors, I wore one for 35+ years while working, heh).

Well, then I’m lucky I corrected it before posting because I first had it as “Does anyONE really know what time it is?”

...but then again, does anyone really care?

Samsung's device is expected to be an accompaniment to a smartphone, rather than a standalone device with its own sim card.

IMHO that's what makes this device uninteresting.

“Does anybody really care.”, was the next line in a song following Post 11.

Yeah. Maybe they're trying to lower expectations. If it had smartphone functionality, it would be more convenient than having a smartphone in your pocket.
