I suspect the 360 won't be with me today, considering it was in Memphis a few hours ago according to the fedex website

It was meant to arrive yesterday, while I was in the office. Got a text from DPD at 6pm saying it would be delivered tomorrow. Rang JL, said I need it sending to the billing address (I'm at home today), woman said this was all cool. It was delivered to London at 9:43 this morning. Obviously. |

Just think how much quicker you could have found all that out if only you could read emails and texts on your wrist. |

It left Memphis at 4:26am apparently. Although I have no idea what timezone they are reporting that in, could be local, could be China as that is where it started out. |

I was, until Motorola told me they had lied to me, and they didn't actually cancel my order, and shipped it anyway. I cancelled the John Lewis one after that. |

John Lewis seem to be claiming that their 2 year electricals warranty doesn't apply to the Moto360. That could make for some interesting conversations in the future, I imagine. |

Works with everything, the only thing you need a windows phone for is the voice commands I think. |

Hey, does GazChap's Technohat count as wearable tech? |

| Post subject: | Re: Wearable Tech |
...not really, I'd argue. I mean it's wearable in the strictest definition of the word but as a jargon term for a class of tech "wearable" also implies "mobile." |
