Standalone Gear 2, "Gear Solo"

Apparently it will only be out in Korea in the next few weeks. If it ever makes it worldwide, do you think smartwatches like this will eventually replace smartphones in the next few years, and drive up sales of tablets, laptops, or desktops?

The way I could see perfect use for these would be me being able to leave my phone at home or in the car and forward everything to watch, if I were going to pool. boating, etc. Having this instead of a phone...no way.

Exactly. I don't see something like this catching on here in the US.
