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. |

| Post subject: | Re: Wearable Tech |
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. |

| 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." |

Seems to be working fine, no dodgy pixels or anything I've installed Wear Mini Launcher, which is the only addon necessary at the moment. Might play around with some custom faces later.

How responsive to a wrist flick when typing is yours Grim...? Mine is basically unresponsive, it only turns on automatically if you raise your arm and twist, which is a bit shit. Not sure if that is just the way it is, or mine is faulty. |

It seems okay. I've not been annoyed by it yet, at any rate. |

| Post subject: | Re: Wearable Tech |
Hmmm.... Not sure if it's just me or a dodgy accelerometer then. I don't know how it should be acting though. Should turning your wrist when typing turn on the watch face? I would have expected so. I might send it back and see what the replacement is like, but that runs the risk of dead pixels again... |
