[laughter] i can do my strides, my pulse, i can know how long i am sleeping, i know that after i wake up. but these devices -- apple just announced their device this week -- these devices and many others, much more sophisticated than this thing, will allow us to monitor our own health care. we will be able to wirelessly send messages to your health care provider because you didn't ingest a pill at the right time. 40% of all prescription drugs are taken in the wrong way. we need to recognize that the best system is where everyone is engaged in their own health care decisions. that is the american way. as we move away from that, our health care costs have gone up and health care outcomes have been worse. technology gives us a chance to move back where we are engaged in all this. mayor? >> i am a small business owner with my two brothers. i polled my employees to see what they wanted me to ask you. >> one question with two parts. >> the first one will be on the affordable care act. we wa

earlier this month, you started taking orders on pebble watches android style watches, what about thele watch? patrick: we are looking at it. we want to be everywhere our customers are in make it as easy for them to order as possible. when we put ourselves on to a new platform, we give customers the ability to get to us more easily and we sell more pizza. betty: what is stopping you from doing it now? patrick: prioritization. there are a lot of places we can be and we are going to take a good look at it. betty: i talked about it this morning with some of my other colleagues. we call it that pete the lobby -- we call it the pizza lobby. they are fighting this menu labeling, grouping pizza along with other fast food. the pizza lobby, including your company, you, yourself, have been unhappy with labeling pizza as fast food. pizza can be bad for you if you eat too much of it, but what makes it different than other the -- what makes it different than the other fast food's? patrick: we have a great common sense solution for it. our customers come to us digitally. if we give them information

pebble, the infantile of the smart watch had sold only one million since 2013 so, how pathetic that youet your arrival to start the market. >> and look in the mirror and they have to recognize that the reality is apple is miles ahead in terms of world technology and they are the core leader in this market. so it is all related to wearables. if you think about this market 15 $20 billion potential market on the road all starts today. apple needs to open up that door for wearables and competitors need apple to be the trail blazer and to get consumers over the hot. betty: it is $350 going to get consumers over the hot? >> i think the jury is out a little. it is not about whether they sell 10 million units are 30 million minutes it is used finally see where core apple consumers go to the watch i do start to move the needle. if that is successful it will on an ecosystem more wearable technology, apps and apple as we have seen to the last decade plus it is hard to argue with what they have done and that is what a lot of people view this wearable event is of huge inflection white in the industr

one interesting comparison is the pebble smart watch. a smart watch that is impeding with the apple watch, but it is crowd funded using the kickstarter website to fund itself. it was originally only asking for $500,000 to get its new model on sale, but it managed to raise $1 million in under an hour and is now sitting at $10 million. the demand is from people putting their money up front before the products even come out. when you expand that to include the extra attention that apple products always tend to get, i think it is quite likely that there is some real demand starting to be seen in this industry. >> how is the pricing of apple watch being received by the media and analysts? they are trying to compete in a number of different markets, down to $300 to real high-end luxury prices. >> that is right. in the u.k., the pricing is going to start at 299 pounds. that is for the entry-level model made of aluminum and geared towards sports use. the next model of is the regular watch that most people are probably going to see as the main pr

there's other competitors that moved to a color e paper display like pebble and they're saying five to seven hours. i think it's good enough but some people might want to wait for the second generation to see if it improves. >> mark sage question to you. tim cook, how has he done. these are not steve jobs' products anymore. what do you make of the apple watch and everything that's come out under his tutelage now? >> sure. up until now it's really been about staying the course. this is a bold new step for the company, the fact they're getting into wearables for the first time. there's a risk but it's a good risk. they're used to being the fast followers. they're never the first to get into a market. it's up to them to prove like they did with the ipad and tablets before that they can really put a stamp on the wearables market and they're off to a good start. >> how do the economics look to you, ben? i know you write about the gadgets and a lot about apple as a company. we talked about the price. how about the fact that apple is a $20 billion0 billion company and this isn't expected to s
