  It's not that no one has aired their doubts, it's that the mainstream has accepted that Apple, one way or another, is just right on this. Take a look at the New York Times tech review: http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/09/technology/personaltech/apple-watch-bliss-but-only-after-a-steep-learning-curve.html http://www.nytimes.com/2015/04/09/technology/personaltech/ap... > Apple Watch Review: Bliss, but Only After a Steep Learning Curve That review is filled with so many caveats and yet ends up being glowing because, I believe, of a strong faith in Apple's vision...if this had been the product of anyone else's, I think the reviewer would've been more confident in calling out the emperor's new clothes. Also, what I have in mind, are the press releases such as, by the NYT, touting that they've already built Watch-specific news delivery...as slow as the NYT moves on many things and untested markets, the Watch was not one of them: http://techcrunch.com/2015/03/31/new-york-times-will-deliver-one-sentence-news-stories-to-apple-watch/ http://techcrunch.com/2015/03/31/new-york-times-will-deliver...
