I'm starting to get intrigued by the idea of an iWatch that has payment and identification capabilities authenticated by a TouchID sensor on the strap. It makes more sense than fumbling around for a phone at the point of sale. The watch could have other functions when tethered to a phone, but certain functions, like payment and ID (and step tracking/ heart rate monitoring), could be independent.

Recode suggests today that Apple announces the watch sept 9, but it won't ship for months. That gives merchants some lead time to implement the POS infra.
