10 Killer Features for Apple’s iWatch
Every smart watch on the market requires you to pair it to your phone via Bluetooth, which limits its functionality when your phone isn’t around. However, if the iWatch has Wi-Fi (or even a SIM card for a possible cellular version), you would be able to stay connected anywhere. However, in order for Apple to pull this off it would need to integrate a very low-power Wi-Fi chip and make it very easy to toggle this radio to save juice.

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? I actually hope this article was a joke because apps, really, on a watch? and Wi-Fi, what for? To say your watch has Wi-Fi? The only useful thing mentioned here was the health monitor.
