Do you think in future, despite the 64MB storage, Microsoft Band will run Windows 10 IoT version? Will it run Universal Apps? Or are we going to have real interactions with the apps on our phones instead of getting notifications only like Apple Watch or Android Wear do?

Not sure I expect much more from the current Band given hardware, design and screen limitations but I do expect they'll have a more fully developed "watch" version of Windows 10.

During today's keynote they had a slide showing the broad range of W10 devices, from the giant Surface Hub to Xbox/Tv, to desktop, laptop, 2-in-1, tablet, big phone, little phone, and maybe a Raspberry Pi. Basically from 3 inches to 85 inches, plus Hololens. I just can't believe they'd work on bringing Windows to all of those different sizes and form factors then completely exclude smartwatches.
