    What do you think about wearable technology? I've recently have a conversation with my friend and I was surprised how strongly he was opposed to the idea of Google Glass. Do you also think it is a huge of intrusion into our privacy?

    The problem with Google Glass is it's just plain ugly and you look like a creeper wearing it. I think the Apple Watch will be the first super popular wearable technology.

    I don't care how useful Google Glass is, I wouldn't be caught dead wearing it. lol

    Wearables are fantastic especially if you are always on the go and have businesses and staff that need your attention 24/7. I personally like smart watches because I can receive calls and other notification without having to get my phone out of my pocket. This is especially convenient when walking or commuting. I also like other features especially the health tracker and step counter.

    I will be honest, I dont want a watch that can call, I dont want a watch that has bluetooth, all I want is a watch that has (a)game on it:

    I find it insanely ridiculous, that I cant find new ones of these. There are so old, yet I cant get one for my kids...

    Yeah, I remember it! Thank you for bringing back fantastic memories! Unroftunatelly, all you can buy today is a very evolved version of this cassio watch called Apple Watch. I know it's not the same because it lacks one essential feature - time traveling ;)
