I'm glad I wasn't the only feeling this. It seems almost a foregone conclusion to tech "pundits" that watches are going to be the salvation for Apple's iPhone fatigue. I just don't get it, the biggest use case is usually "your smart phone is in your pocket, now you won't have to get it out". The only time my smartphone is't already visible is when I am walking or eating dinner (and most of my friends continue to put their smartphones out on the table when eating out).

Until some wearable device can actually replace a smartphone instead of complement it, I think you're right. Not many people want to carry yet another device, so you've got to have a pretty awesome and broadly appealing use case to convince them to do so. I just don't see it with the Gear (or the Glass for that matter).
