Samsung seeking smartwatch trademarks in US and S. Korea
Samsung's setting its sights on the emerging smartwatch market. The maker of Galaxies, Notes and Tabs just applied for U.S. and South Korean trademarks for a watch that connects to the Internet. Samsung's reserved the Samsung Gear and Samsung Galaxy Gear trademarks in the US and South Korea while describing a wearable and connected computing device that comes in the form of a wristwatch, bracelet or bangle. More than just an adjunct or accessory, it seems like Samsung just might put a phone with limited smartphone functions on a wristwatch. This all remains to be seen but it is interesting to see Samsung trying to get first-mover advantage in the wearable computing segment.
