Default Well, technically speaking

Full story

That didn't take long.

The Apple Watch isn't even available in stores yet—only early adopters who preordered have one—and a Canadian man has already been ticketed for using it while driving. Maybe he should have waited for CarPlay?

Details come from Canada's CTV News, which reports that Quebec man Jeffrey Macesin is facing a $120 fine for using the new wonder wearable computer to change songs while behind the wheel. Upon observing Macesin use the device, a patrolman pulled him over and issued the fine, citing language in the Quebec Highway Safety Code which states “no person may, while driving a road vehicle, use a hand-held device that includes a telephone function.”
well technically speaking it was on his wrist and therefore is not handheld..... right?

It will be interesting to see how this plays out, so to speak.

That gadget does have a certain appeal. But will it become a core product for the company, like the i-phone? Or will it stem the tide of the company's recent success.
