Wearables could seem like a logical next step for Apple's long term roadmap, especially when considering early efforts like the Pebble and Google Glass by other companies. Maybe we'll look back and regard those in the same way we regard the Motorola Razr today. I remember my graduate advisor, author to the most cited tangible interaction paper out there, musing on what Apple would be doing 10 years from now. His speculations were on the side of augmented jewelry– wearable, without being as large as a watch or glasses– and smart textiles. The industry examples are scarce, but the research in this field is extremely active (http://www.tei-conf.org/ http://www.tei-conf.org/), with some very interesting prototypes being demo'd and work being published every year. I'm looking forward to chatting about this with you all again in 10 years :)
