So Smart Watches seem to be all the rage right now. Apple, Samsung, Motorola etc. are all putting out watches that communicate with our phones.

The only problem is, in my mind, they all look cheap.

Do you think a company like Breilting will ever create a smart watch? Something like a B-1 or Airwolf that also communicates with our phones?

I like the idea of a smart watch, but just can't get behind the design and cheapness. But if there was an Airwolf that also talked to my phone? Count me in.

Sure,

but I think they will bundle it with their tablet when they release that ;-)

(tongue in cheek ! , no I dont believe they will as they're not a computer company)

No, unless someone invents a DLC coated touchscreen.

Another advantage of snow - covers the rocks and stops them flying up at windshields. I don't know how you put up with the horrors of Arizona :roll:
