Apple Has 100 Product Designers Working on a Wristwatch-like Device

According a report from Bloomberg, Apple has a has a team of about 100 product designers working on a wristwatch-like device, which is commonly referred to as iWatch, according to people familiar with the matter.

Apparently the new device, iWatch, is likely to perform some of the tasks now handled by the iPhone and iPad, according to the report.

“The team, which has grown in the past year, includes managers, members of the marketing group, and software and hardware engineers who previously worked on the iPhone and iPad,” Peter Burrows and Adam Satariano report for Bloomberg. “The team’s size suggests Apple is beyond the experimentation phase in its development, said the people.”

This Bloomberg report comes a on the heel of similar reports from the Wall Street Journal and the New York Times.

This is also a very interesting report by 9to5mac and how Apple may go about developing such a device.
