Third wave of Apple with iWatch and how Nike has a part to play

The future of wearable tech is bright and recent new related to Apple's next big thing the iWatch and Nike not building Fuelband for Android does have a link. Tim Cook is a huge fan of Nike's Fuelband and he has been trying to work together with them in making technology an integral part of an iUser's life. There was even a patent that Apple submitted few months ago on a shoe related technology.

There is something going on and I believe this is going to be Apple's next wave.

Wearable Technology and Apple

The wildly successful iPod Nano' square design was discontinued and a new design was called in. People were perplexed as to why didn't Apple pursue the square design where people found innovative ways to make it into a watch, locket, workout buddy and the list goes on.

Did Apple miss something or did they see something?

Wearable technology is on the rise and with Nike releasing its Fuel band, Jawbone  releasing its Up and Google's Glass Project, we do see the trend of devices becoming more than just for information consumption.

Apple never started anything new but instead improved on what was existing and stagnant. In this case, will Apple pioneer this or does it improve on something that's already existing?

That we'll have to wait and see.
