“Apple Inc Chief Executive Officer Tim Cook on Monday is expected to announce details of the first product developed under his leadership, a watch that Apple hopes will transform the market of wearable technology,” Edwin Chan and Alexei Oreskovic report for Reuters.
“Apple has said the watch will launch in April and speculation is rife on what capabilities, from healthcare and fitness to navigation and entertainment, will be included,” Chan and Oreskovic report. “Apple will have to “tweak” its stores to handle the watch, Cook told the Telegraph newspaper recently.”
Chan and Oreskovic report, “Cook is expected to take stage at 10 a.m. PST (1 p.m. EST) on Monday in a carefully choreographed presentation.
