Apple iWatch: latest rumours suggest a wearable revolution

^{The Pebble watch raised $10million, indicating consumer interest in wearable technology}

Google is already working on Glass, a headset with a screen that projects information from the internet to add information to what the wearer can see. Apple itself, however, has not previously been known to be interested in ?wearable technology?, despite the popularity of fitness devices such as the Nike+Fuelband and Fitbit or Fitbug.

Pebble claims to be ?the first watch built for the 21st century. It's infinitely customizable, with beautiful downloadable watchfaces and useful internet-connected apps. Cyclists can use Pebble as a bike computer, accessing the GPS on your smartphone to display speed, distance and pace data. Runners get a similar set of data displayed on their wrist. Use the music control app to play, pause or skip tracks on your phone with the touch of a button.?

Although Apple?s watch is rumoured to do more than existing devices because it allows phone calls, Gizmag?s Will Shanklin said the rumour ?smells fishy?.

?Even if Siri-powered accessories are eventually coming, though, this rumor is suspect. ?Long-shot? doesn't begin to describe the odds,? he said.

Shanklin added, however, ?Even if this rumor is bogus, though, wearable tech products are waiting in the wings.?

Rene Ritchie wrote on iMore that ?Given the popularity of the nano-as-watch, and of other connected watch-style devices, like the television, it's hard to imagine that Apple doesn't have a project or prototype or several in the labs. Also like the television, that's a far cry from going to market with an final, polished product.?
