 |  Intel Basis wearable killed off Back in March 2014 Intel acquired Basis, a smartwatch manufacturer, and integrated this company in its wearable / IoT dream. Now, just two years later Intel has decided to recall all Basis watches due to overheating problems. On June 13th Intel emailed everyone who has a flagship Basis Peak watch to stop wearing it due to it overheating. Intel was working on a software based solution and finally gave up yesterday. Josh Walden, Senior Vice President and General Manager, Intel New Technology Group prepared an Intel official statement: http://fudzilla.com/news/wearables/4...ble-killed-off |
