No touch ID though, that's still on the phone so.... I'm guessing payments won't be as useful on the watch, if present at all.


Yeah, I was wondering about this. My guess is that security will be based on the fact that you wear a watch, so it's much harder to lose it or steal it. Maybe they will have a passcode that applies until you take the watch off (which they have the sensors to detect). Maybe it will confirm proximity to your phone. There are possibilities.
