Doesn't almost every single existing android/smart wearable provide the ability to not "constantly check her phone for important work emails during family time"? At this point, apple needs to be doing more than their competitors in order to keep justifying their environment lock-in, _especially_ in the mobile space

Tory Burch isn't going to make watch bands for random Android Wear devices. I know it hasn't been announced, but look at the iPhone accessories market: most of the designer labels focus their efforts on Apple products. The tie-in to the Apple Watch is inevitable.

Do you think that environment lock-in is something that most consumers care about?
