     Wearable tech sees to be the new and upcoming things in development recently with Samsung, Dell, and even Nissan making whats known as smart watches. Apple is no exception in this market with their new iWatch coming to market soon. Engadget says "According to Bloomburg Apple has a  team of around 100 designers working on a wristwatch-like device that may perform some of the tasks now handled by the iPhone and iPad". The team includes people from all parts of Apple: not just iPad and iPhone engineers but software developers, managers and marketers too.

    Although there is an iWatch in the making, there is very little information to be released to the public. Neither a price nor a release date has been mentioned for the device. Only but an anonymously named analyst has mentioned a price range around $150 to $230. Release dates have been very spastic from being "for sure 2013" to "late 2013" to now "late 2014".Apple itself hinted at "exciting new product categories" back in April, with Tim Cook promising "some really great stuff coming in the fall and across all of 2014" - could some of that really great stuff be worn on your wrist?

   Apple's iWatch will be really big on fitness. Quite aside from the fact that Apple 'ordered in boxes of Nike Fuelbands' and its CEO Tim Cook sits on the Nike board, there's the fact that Apple's been on a fitness-fueled hiring spree. Jay Blahnik, who as good as confirmed his new full time position at Apple on Twitter before deleting his entire account (wethinks the gentleman doth protest too much).
