   A friend has volunteered to swap watches/trackers with me for     
   about 4 days. We'll see if he gets the same 2:30-7a-ONLY sleep     
   record with the ID205L that I did.   
      
   Meanwhile, I'll be wearing a Fitbit Charge 4.  Ret. $149.

   I suppose that's can be good (obviously for seniors) ..but also     
   perhaps for a hiker.

   I see a lot more people settling a POS payment using the     
   touchless tech using a phone.  I assume that's an ApplePay     
   exclusive feature.
