Mean while everyone with a Moto 360 is getting asked "Is that the Apple Watch?!?!" myself included. You should see the deflated look on their face when you tell them that the Apple watch is square.
I use the word "techie" in quotes because, while many of those people would have described themselves as techies, I found they were really just consumers of technology. They had no functional knowledge of how anything worked or how to make anything themselves. To them, the only smartphone (or smartwatch) in existence was the Apple product, because to them the entire point was to brag about acquisition.
Even within the demographic of programmers, you'll find "techies". They ask you what programming language or framework you used to build your project, then get disappointed when you didn't magically read their minds 6 months in the past and chose their darling flavor. I've got no use for such people.
