> Initially, most iWatch sales will be to consumers who already own an iPhone.

Why do you say that?

I'm thinking more and more the iWatch is going to be something a doctor tells a patient to buy. That kind of functionality doesn't need a cell phone connection. The data could be stored on the watch and then transmitted when its plugged into a computer to recharge the battery.

No need for a phone and a gigantic immediately addressable market that will not be "shopping around" much. If a doctor wants you to get an iWatch because it has better sensors, you will get an iWatch.

Just like you get any other prescription. Oh you might ask for a different watch, but you'll get the one your doctor tells you to get.

If my guess is right.

Of course once you have an iWatch on all the time, you might just decide to get an iPhone and a Mac to go with it.
