Apple Reportedly Testing Inductive, Solar and Motion Charging For Its Smartwatch
An anonymous reader writes in with the latest from the rumor mill about a possible Apple smartwatch. "We've heard that when Apple reveals its first smartwatch product, there's going to be a heavy focus on health and fitness, but There might also be a way to charge the wearable without plugging it in, according to a report from the New York Times. Inductive charging came in a wave of smartphones last year, including Google's Nexus 4 and Nokia's Lumia 920 range, although we don't often see it in anything smaller than a phone (or camera) form-factor. Apple, however, is looking into cramming the same technology into its iWatch, or whatever it eventually calls its debut wearable."
isn't it just an iPod nano with a wrist-band?
Are you nuts? How the heck should we then sell you a new one every other year?
We used to have a Bill of Rights. Now, with the rights gone, all we have left is the bill.
You are baiting for a "your mom" joke, you know that, right?

Also, I'd much rather have them release a new model every year than try to sell the same old model for the same old price year after year.
