"Few are excited about the Apple Watch"
I feel the author has extrapolated his feelings onto the population of the world. Apple is selling 5-8x as many Watches as it sold iPhones when it launched.
36-50m excited people is a lot of excited people.
Apple sold 6.1 million first generation iPhone units over five quarters.[1]
Apple is predicted to sell 36-50m Apple watches in its first year[2]
