Yep ... I don’t remember one time that I’ve ever popped into a Microsoft OS thread to inform everyone there that their thread is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING that I’m interested in ... LOL ...

Didn’t bother reading the lead article did you? Whole point is most of the smart are in the phone, but there’s still a lot you can do without that nearby.

Yum. I didn’t think I wanted an iPad but now I’m considering buying a third one. This stuff is addictive.

70 percent of apple iphone and ipod users are male. quite a difference from the 50-50 you’re suggesting.

Not true. Please provide a link to your statistics. Apple has a quite different demographic. Are you suggesting female customers choose Android? I doubt it. I see many women using iPhones, more so than I see men.

no statistics are published based on sexual identity of apple customers
(pretty sure apple doesn’t want to be seen as the fag tech company)

Yes, there are. . . so your claim is made up out of your nether regions, as i thought. Again, sten, you are talking to an Economist, who works with figures and knows when you are lying through your teeth. You make yourself look foolish when you make up easily refuted absurd claims like that fake lying stat.

the west coast is being inundated with homos in the tech sector. in some companies, if you’re not on board with the agenda, you’ll be pushed out.

though i’ve never worked for apple, i’d imagine it’s very much the same (with a ‘hard charging’ fruit running the company now, it’s pretty much guaranteed)

“More than 70 percent of users on both the iPhone and iPod touch are male.”

It costs what is typical for a good quality watch, under a dollar a day.
Those who find it useful are free to buy as they like.
Those who don’t are free to not buy.
I don’t understand why so many seem so threatened by it that they keep getting on threads about products they don’t want to tell those who do they’re idiots.

I can't for the life of me think of a reason to start wearing something like this. Between my desktop at home, my tablet when traveling and my cell phone when out and about I already have more connectivity and functionality than I could ever use or want.

Besides, I have a life... sitting around watching my wrist waiting for tweets announcing the next pricey upgrade to the iWatch isn't my thing.

But... I'm sure they'll sell plenty of them... the folks who line up overnight outside stores so they can be the first to get every new phone or Mac will of course all snap these things up... if they don't they'll feel inadequate. That's the power of marketing.
