Apparently they’ve cornered the market on exclamation points as well.

Nah, clearly this can’t possibly be true!

Someone on FreeRepublic stated that no one wears watches anymore!

Must be a lot of people embracing the left wing fascism of Tim Cook. Does it have an app for ratting out Christians who oppose homofascism?

The Apple Watch is on fire

Does that mean that I finally will be able to tell the time of day by merely glancing at my wrist? I have to have one of those.

BFD. Other than the oppurtunity to become an obnoxious iHole, give me three good reasons to buy an iWatch (or any other smart watch). In other words, I would like to know how the iWatch is going to change my life (other than making me an obnoxious iHole).

Looks like the Apple Watch is a smash success.

It's all people can talk about at work and some co-workers are positively giddy over the prospects of wearing one as soon as next week. But unfortunately that is not going to happen because Apple is pushing back the store release date due to the tremendous amount of pre-orders it has already received.

They have already completely sold out their initial inventory and now they are going to have trouble meeting demand.

My prediction is that Apple is going to sell over a billion watches by 2020. With an average price of about $465 we are talking nearly a half trillion dollars of revenue here.

But by 2020, a half trillion will be small change for Apple. Billions and billiions and billions of iPhone, iPads, and other soon to be announced devices will be sold by then.

Apple will be a trillion dollar company in 2016 and a quadrillion dollar company by 2050.

Getting back to watches, I think many people are going to own as many as a half dozen Apple watches. You will want a elegant looking one for the workplace, a sports version for the weekends, a classy watch for special occasions like weddings and awards dinners, a durable one for working around the yard and garden, a waterproof one for the beach and finally, a casual one for the golf course or clubhouse.

Sorry to disappoint but Apple has “SOLD” NOTHING yet , ZERO , NADA ... they haven’t delivered anything yet... Pre-Orders are nice but the sales haven’t been consummated with a delivery. For all we know they will have to be unwound/refunded or at least a refund offered. Lets face it the functionality isn’t there ,, it’ll be years before this is a worthwhile thing to have... a standalone unit that doesn’t simply piggyback on a smartphone... So IF Apple delivers you’ll have two devices with short life batteries failing at different times and needing recharging...

I’ll wait until the thing works on it’s own...

Far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the Western Spiral arm of the Galaxy lies a small unregarded yellow sun. Orbiting this at a distance of roughly ninety-eight million miles is an utterly insignificant little blue-green planet whose ape-descended life forms are so amazingly primitive that they still think digital watches are a pretty neat idea.

And all the buyers voted for Bammy too. Oh yeah, they used their EBT cards to buy them.

“Apple has managed 50% [of the 4.6 million bands] in less than a week.” Impressive. I would buy the iWatch if I could afford it. Yes, the leader, Mr. Tim Cook, is breaking the Ten Commandments and is flirting with hell. Yes, I pray for him and use the Apple stuff: it works smoothly and has excellent fonts.

I enjoy inputting and learning from the comments here.
