Areas that many users are waiting to see are price, simplicity, elegance, and features.

However, Forbes Magazine has cleared the air, saying that Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) might only commence shipping iWatch in early 2015. This is according to Re/code’s John Paczkowski, the man who first correctly reported about the September 9th event.
“So when does Apple plan to ship its eagerly anticipated wearable?” he asks. “That’s not clear, but my understanding is that we’re unlikely to see it at retail until after the holiday season — think early 2015.”
If it happens that way, it means consumers will have to wait a while longer before they can get their hands on the gadget.
