The Apple Watch (AKapple-watch-cancel-accept-dA “iWatch”) is possibly the most revolutionary device to hit computerdom in years, the greatest folly since the Edsel, or a bore we’ll forget about by Memorial Day.

Here’s a sample of the widely diverging opinion on this new wearable computer, from Apple watchers, technology pundits, and the media and fashion elite:
