iWatch 2.0 is the Android Wear

At the end of June Apple officially lost the smart watch race. Google is a year late (or my prediction was a year too early), but whatever Apple does later this year, they won't be able to turn back the clock. And anything else, including Pebble, Toq and Galaxy Gear is no longer relevant.

Yes Apple will come up with an iWatch. But by the time they do, the Google Play Store will be full of applications supporting Android Wear. Google Now, which is most important, has supported the Wear since the day one, and other important updates are rolling out now. The Wear - enabled Google Maps was released last week.

Yes Apple will make a beautiful iWatch hardware. And I know people will be wearing it just because is is so cool and beautiful. But by that time Android will have a decent selection of models that will be very practical (as the Android notification system is compared to the iOS'es) and not bad looking either (my personal favorite is the round Motorola Moto 360).

In the wake of Google / Android domination, Apple has less and less options to play. Forget the iWatch. Can Apple user live without the Google Search? or without YouTube? I think the right, bold step for Apple to execute now is to buy Yahoo and start building real Cloud alternative to Google.
