Shhh. Microsoft sells a smart watch too, but don't tell anybody.

"The aggressive expansion of the Band comes a month before the Apple Watch is expected to be shipped. And while consumers don’t appear to be excited about the Apple Watch, the Band has been an unexpected hit for Microsoft. Microsoft hasn’t disclosed sales numbers, but the product has been constantly out of stock in Microsoft Stores and available only for consumers who put their names on wait lists. Apple’s stock faltered after showing its watch last week."

The hype machine may have reached its limit.
