The Intl version would be quite appealing to me but I think the size is just a bit too large to be wearable. For me, wearable is that it fit in a sportcoat/suit pocket.

My Nexus 7 3G fits in 75% of my coat pockets so it makes the cut-off. But anything wider just won't work.

IMO, if someone makes a "wearable" phablet around the Nexus 7 footprint (maybe N7 V2?), SDCard expansion and replaceable battery, they'd clean up.
It fits nicely in my suit pocket and jacket pocket - it is 5.35" wide compared to the 5" of the Nexus 7 (and 5.3" of the iPad Mini).
