I'd imagine they'd try and push some Google Glass functionality over to a smartwatch. So I think it would be more than simple emails and texts. Plus, I'm sure a mini computer on your wrist has multiple potential uses that we just haven't thought of yet.
Got a tip for us?

Yeah no doubt. In terms of google now though, in using it I've seen limited functionality in all honesty, maybe it's just how I use it. I think no matter what they add to it, in the end it's just going to be a glorified message checker like all the other smartwatches out there.
But we will see, hopefully something gets announced and Google proves me wrong.

A watch would likely provide the spark to make Now into a better assistant though so I'd be interested to see if they've developed it with 4.4 or with the rumoured watch
