I can think of many reasons to have one. . . especially for women who carry their iPhones in their purses. Phone call or text comes in. . . and they are forever digging in their purses trying to get their iPhone out to answer or check the text. Most often the call goes to message before they can get it out or they may drop the phone in fumbling for it.

My wife is like that. And no, she won't wear a bluetooth earpiece.

I’d get one if they were waterproof

I'd get one if they weren't made by a nazi poof.

Just like they’ve been failing in their previous products, too ... eh?! ... LOL ...

You bet! That’s the beauty of the product and also why Apple is so WILDLY SUCCESSFUL. Apple does know how to make products to meets the needs of the mass market!

Tim Cook is a Nazi?

First I’ve heard of that...

Hmmm...so subs compress the air as depth compresses diver’s lungs?

Does that mean that submariners have to wait at certain depths for their nitrogen to depressurize, so they don’t get the bends, as divers do?

Thanks!

Ed

I don’t know, but I do know Subs can’t handle deep water very well.

I think what a lot of people are missing here is that this device will make it possible for you to somewhat safely send and receive messages while driving. Chances are, the police are not going to pull you over and ticket you just for wearing a watch, as they likely would if they saw your handling a smartphone.

Just by looking at your hand on the steering wheel, you are going to be able to watch the stream of incoming data and I presume Bluetooth will be used to accept your verbal commands as input.

Probably still not 100% safe but definitely less conspicuous.

In your circles, Sir Ed, you probably aren’t going to hear of the seamier exploits carried out under the banner you salute.

Little hint to you. Do you remember ever hearing of the original Nazis shutting down the businesses of those whose religious faith they disagreed with?

The Great Gay Leader of your apple-bobbing club has set about doing much the same thing.

True, he has been forcing his demands by way of legal and financial pressures, and hasn’t been breaking out windows in the dark of night.

Yet.

By the way, Sir Ed, what do you call these kind of anti-Christian polemics and coercion? Salesmanship?

I do remember, yes.

But...in Indiana, Michigan and Arizona, it was also other mainstream companies such as Archer Midland Daniels, IBM, Kellog, etc., who were clamoring for the Homo Fascists to destroy Christian businesses.

I think if one were to boycott every company that didn’t join in the gay Jihad, you’d have but a handful of companies to choose from.

I call them all big-business/big government crony capitalism/fascism, I’m completely against them all, but EVERYONE is doing this, name one major company that did NOT come out against the fascist shutting down of Christian businesses if they chose to follow their faith, I doubt you’d find a one.

I agree with you on that.

I don't know every company that ran sniveling to associate itself with the homos.

I do know that among them was Walmart, which I will avoid shopping at, and particularly Apple, whose revolting CEO made it personal, as he has ever since he so bravely exposed himself for what he is, at what---55 years old?

I won't be buying his products from here on out either.

If everyone is doing it, and I have to pick and choose, then I will do at least that. I still see the vile Cook as the evil queen in all this, and will do what I can to oppose what he stands for. People like him will do everything they can to destroy us, and especially to destroy the (few, admittedly) good men and women we hope to have stand for us in the government.

in the interest of disclosure, I use a 20 year old Mac every day, along with the stuff I *have* to use at work, but BTW, I have no interest in owning a so-called smart phone (possibly in the same way I used to have no interest in owning a cell phone), and the Apple Watch appears to me to be a solution in search of a problem, appealing to the Koolaid drinkers. The incoherent, inchoate animus directed to Apple -- allegedly for reasons that apply at least as strongly to all other brands -- remains both distasteful and a puzzle. big glass of reality: Samsung circling the drain: haters gonna hate: this was the most intriguing announcment in the recent big reveal from Apple (when I work, I work in health care): and here's some good news for all you LINOs (Libertarians in Name Only) out there: and bravo!
