Juniper Research estimates the value of the wearable device market this year at $1.5 billion, up from $800 million in 2013. The LG "G Watch," which was made in partnership with Google Inc, will sell for $299 and available for pre-orders starting July 8. "Because the LG G Watch works with so many of our Android smartphones, it should be a wearable device that appeals to a wide array of consumers," Jeff Bradley, senior vice president of devices at AT&T, said in a statement.
