Dell may be the latest newcomer to the list of companies headed for the smartwatch market

Allow us to refresh your memory. Joining Sony and Kickstarter-backed Pebble are Google, Samsung, and Apple. Oh, and Qualcomm. Intel, too. By the way, LG and Foxconn said they also want a piece of the future action. And now – Dell! Excitement aside (okay, not quite!), it looks like by the end of the year, we may be one step closer to science-fiction.
Back to smartwatches, though - Sam Burd, Dell's global VP, told The Guardian that Dell is “exploring ideas in that space”, even though “there are challenges in cost, and how to make it a really good experience […] But the piece that's interesting is that computers are getting smaller. Having a [smart] watch on your wrist – that's pretty interesting, pretty appealing.”
"Michael Dell believes we are on the right page for transformation. The view is that we can get ourselves out of the quarterly reporting process where you can't make hard decisions to speed up that transformation."
"Looking ahead five years, we expect devices and form factors to continue to change. There will still be a need for 'static' computing on desktops, but there will be a real need for mobile devices. There's a lot of discussion about how that fits into wearable devices like we've seen with Google Glass and watches. We're looking at a world of lots of connected devices."
