Yes I know "Patents aren't products" and all... but do you think we could see a return of the Band?

Just saying that a wearable would be a good way to demonstrate how small a device Polaris can run on, or a good way to demo Windows IOT......

I have no doubt they want to re-enter wearables at some point, given the whole "One OS on every device" mantra. It's just a matter of timing and market variables. I suppose if andromeda is a success, and the first real version of HoloLens is under solid development they might look at it. They need a little momentum I think.
