Well that announcement was good timing. Next week I'm going to be in the vicinity of an Apple store with a couple hours to kill. I was thinking about stopping in and taking a look at the Apple Watch. Now I'll definitely be buying an Apple Watch. I've had a Fitbit for a little over three years since I got a programming job at a company that offers its employees a free Fitbit. I'm not exaggerating when I say it changed my life. I'm no longer out of breath when I walk up my driveway and I can go on hikes without ending up with severe knee pain. But I'd rather put up with Apple's current software quality issues than let Google own my health data.
