For sure, I don't want to be too far on the side of saying it will be a hit...I'm just saying I could see it. Much more than any other wearable so far. But ultimately, do you really need what wearables can do for you atm? Meh.

Regarding Square, yeah, I think so. Their market just isn't that massive. What does your wife do? I don't see too many people taking checks. My wife doesn't even take them in her store (exceptions for customers she knows well).

Midwife. Her services are paid for in multiple four-figure installments. Checks are actually comforting for most people.

but yeah. That's how we know it'll take a centurion card.

Ah, that actually makes perfect sense. Professions that still get paid in personal checks for $200 please, Alex.
