    NFC or some kind of always-on exchange protocol may be really cool on this. We'd be able to pay with the watch on our wrist.

This is a disaster in a world where everyone owns an iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or any combination of these devices. Two-way communication opens the possibility of pairing components to their remotes so that the owner of the component decides who controls the component.



     


    This pairing and two-way communication is something I hadn't considered. Can I discuss this and cite you in a blog post?

    I still want my AppleTV (true tv). I love my AppleTV (set top box). I wouldn't mind a watch that is combination of the two though ;)
