Apple has also been issued a patent for solar cell multitouch panels, so it’s possible that an iWatch could get juice from sunlight or ambient light.

I’m trying to be objective here, but why would anybody want to pay for something that does the exact same thing as their smartphone, but worse, due to a smaller screen?
