I know battery life is impacted but I really want exactly this with GPS.

I want to be able to track my runs.

I love the banglejs because it is hackable but the GPS was very difficult to use. But it is such a fun device to hack on.

What does Intel think about that name and was it intentional?

Any plans for a more sporty model (i.e., HR, GPS?)?

Is that not one of Intel's trademarks from the past 20 years?

I realized a long time ago that I don't actually want a smartwatch, but this _is_ making me very nostalgic

Maybe I skimmed too quickly, are there no size/dimensions published? Seems the display size is there, and the strap width, but no other details as far as I can tell.

I was interested in NFC payments using a smartwatch. Do these watches support NFC payment? I didn't see any mention of it.

Is the weight and thickness of the watches announced anywhere?
