Beats the fuck out of me, and I'm not that old. (Ok, I'm old by internet standards at 32.) I don't really even get FitBits and the like. Why should I need data about my exercise. The weather forecast is good, because it tells you what might happen tomorrow, not what's happening right now. I have a window for that. If I want to know how well I'm doing at fitness, I'll look in the goddam mirror (although, to be fair, I really don't know what those thing do besides count steps; I assume something else since their just a bit more expensive than a free pedometer). Counting steps is as arbitrary as counting calories, but I suppose that point is lost on people who look at labels in the store, too, and that market ain't small.

All that said, I was excited about the iWatch announcement, but only because there was an internet rumor floating around some time ago about a company called InvenSense who might be providing the chips for these gadgets. I bought some shares on a gamble. Apple is notoriously quiet about their suppliers, so the stock didn't really move, but time will tell.
