smrybacki Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Anyone who knows me knows I think that Apple products are overpriced, over-hyped affairs. But I have to say that the new iWatch appears to be a very elegant design indeed. I have no idea about their battery life and (of course) Apple isn't dishing on that yet, but this watch appears to me to be something people may not even notice is a smart watch and that is a good thing. Well done, and I don't say that lightly. I like the basic black (not shown) personally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheRealZap Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 no joke though... the petersen strobe tuner app is a revelation. (albeit an expensive one for an app, but amazing, nonetheless) Can't wait for Line 6 to put a tuner app on it :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gunpointmetal Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Apple products are overpriced, over-hyped affairs. Fixed that for ya ;). Anyone else think a $400 device that requires a $300-$600 device kinda silly? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well done, and I don't say that lightly. I like the basic black (not shown) personally. The main point (and I suspect you know this) was that the design of the item was elegant as opossed to utter geek-ware. I'm not buying one because it's made by the Fruit Company, but maybe this type of styling will push this particular trend towards actually wearable yet useful tech that doesn't require a co-signer.

phil_m Posted September 10, 2014 Share Posted September 10, 2014 Or use the accelerometer to measure your strumming speed and send MIDI clock to Mobile POD. That would be pretty cool... Although, I think most people wear their watch on the hand opposite of their dominant one, which would mean that most guitarists would probably wear a watch on their picking hand instead of their strumming one.
