There is a name for this category of nearly extinct brand of wireless consumer....they are called feature phone owners.

I dont know if Pebble style watches are going to be a success, but I absolutely guarantee that the smartwatch you describe will be an absolute utter failure. These are the last consumers that are going to be wearing their phones on their wrist.
