I agree with Jackthomas. I've used the watch since launch. It is handy to be able to glance at messages and emails without having to open up the phone. Hopefully with os2 some functionality will improve too. The watch isn't any good for boarding as 1. it tends to switch off before you get to the front and 2. you can't fit your arm and the watch under the scanner and would thus have to take it off. Hence I just use my QFF card. I do like the citymapper app when overseas and the SPG app is kinda neat to open hotel doors.

+1. Tried this once and it is useless.
With VA I use passbook which keeps the barcode alive/active all the time until you dismiss it, which gets over problem #1 (I think, anyway). My arm + watch fits in VA's scanners and I've used it several times.

The watch is fairly gimmicky though. Unfortunately I love the message + calendar notifications. Looking forward to more being opened up with OS 2.
