The news spread by the New York Times reinforces some rumors that we have been reading here and there. According to the newspaper, Apple is already testing a smart watch that has iWatch name (expected something different?). Journalist Nick Bilton, the article's writer, claims that the information comes right from inside Apple through an employee. IWatch is sure to feature a version of a pure iOS or iOS compatible operating system that will allow you to communicate with all devices in the Apple family, especially iPhone and iPad.

According to other rumors Apple with the collaboration of Corning, the same company that makes the famous Gorilla Glass, is making a new glass for iWatch that will be flexible, curved, touch sensitive and will be one tenth of a millimeter thick, its name ? Willow Glass. The goal would be for the glass to extend over most of the watch strap, or all the way around, without this making it heavier.

But you must be thinking, “but there are other concepts similar to this in the market“. Of course, but who has the Apple ecosystem and who knows how to manage it so well? Have you ever imagined the integrations of the same with the iPhone for example using the iWatch function of compass, sms reader or facebook messages. On the other hand, do you often forget your cell phone at home? How about an app that allows them to set an alarm when the iWatch is a certain distance from the iPhone. What if iWatch even allows you to make calls? How much this will open the imagination to new integration apps between the devices of the “i” universe.

And now for when a Galaxy Watch?
