There’s a smartwatch-athon in the making. Apple is working on one, according to rumors that seemed to gel earlier this year. Samsung has taken the lid off its plans, though no specifics have been announced, and LG is rumored to be building one too. Kickstarter phenom Pebble began shipping its smartwatch several weeks ago, and on Monday rumors began circulating that Microsoft was also looking to produce a wearable timepiece that could do much more than just tell time. Besides all the watches, there’s a variety of headgear in the works — most notably, Google’s Glasses. The ingredient missing from this building frenzy is market demand.
