The Apple Watch adds more complexity to my life, not less.
The Apple Watch won’t make me more productive.
The Apple Watch won’t make me healthier.
The people that will buy the Apple Watch when it’s released next month are doing so because a) they’re bored, b) they want to be cool and c) they’ve got $350 lying around and would rather give it to Apple then, say a charity or – God forbid – their savings account. And that’s fine. I don’t begrudge what people spend their money on. But version 1.0 of the Apple Watch is a waste of money. That doesn’t meant that someday it won’t trigger a whole new generation of similar products that actually will make people’s lives less complex, more productive and healthier. And I hope it does. And when it does, that’s when I’ll buy it.
