I think the same goes for any wearable tech. I find the idea of watch phones awesome, but all of them right now (like on aliexpress or Sony's smartwatch) are pretty tacky/nerdy. But with the right execution and design a watch phone could be an awesome way to avoid taking the phone out of your pocket for checking messages or snapping a pic real fast. A phone client rather than a full phone seems like the right way to go. Plus it's way less intrusive than a pair of glasses (not as fun as augmented reality though).
Edit: something like these would be amazing:

- gfodor 14y agoYeah I think there is a good chance we'll see the iWatch by 2015. FaceTime + iWatch = any kid who grew up with Dick Tracy's geek fantasy come true.
