So, if I'm wearing my :apple:WATCH and its connected to my iPhone [presumably] via bluetooth, what happens when I get into my car? I like that the phone automatically connects to my audio system for music/phone calls/etc. Does anybody know if it is or will be possible to have simultaneous connections? Possibly data to the phone and audio to the car?

Apparently it can have multiple connections. That's what I was told when I went and ordered two bluetooth cups (yes, you read that right) knowing that I also use bluetooth in my car and would be expecting to buy an apple watch.

But then I was only told this by "Mr random internet" so have no solid proof. I check bluetooth specs and it mentions multiple devices but this isn't specific to iphones.

You can have multiple devices paired to your iPhone.

But the Apple watch and the iPhone should be using Wifi. And Bluetooth should be for watch accessories like Bluetooth headphones that Tim Cook mentioned.
