Consumers in Australia flocked to Apple Inc's (AAPL.O) store in Sydney on Friday to get the world's first up-close look at the tech giant's smartwatch, which the company expects will be its next runaway hit.

The Apple Watch, CEO Tim Cook's first new major product, was available for pre-order online and to try out in stores - but not take home.

On April 24, consumers will be able to buy it online or by reservation at retail locations including high-end fashion boutiques in Paris, London and Tokyo, part of Apple's strategy of positioning the wearable computer as a must-have accessory.

It's not really Apple that the people you call "haters" hate.

Oh, Berlin_Freeper, you broke the 1st through 254th commandment of the Church of Apple.

Thou shall not utter anything negative of Apple ever.

Doesn't matter if you actually use their stuff, one wrong move and the high bishops will come down on you.

The special characteristic of APPLE-HATER TROLLS is that they show up on the Apple threads and proceed to tell all the Apple customers on Free Republic how much they hate Apple and their products ... LOL ...

Yea I noticed they do that.

I might actually get a cheap smart watch just for the Mickey Mouse with the arms. But definitely not going to get the Apple Watch for at least a few years till they fix things right.

That's what you have to tell yourself to so you can pretend your hands are clean.

I read your WSJ link. If your brain is only 25-50% functional you need one. This Cupertino smart watch will shrink peoples brain power.

I say: Achtung Apple fanbois! Buy two. One for you and one for your gay boyfriend.

Hipsters and bored urbanites. Go buy this latest essential crap!

If i don’t buy one does that mean i am anti-gay?

Yes. Also, life isn't worth living without a gay apple watch. Just ask the chinese. They are willing to give up organs for one.

I think that these APPLE-HATER TROLLS will try to say that, as a straw man argument, so they can have fun knocking it down ... LOL ...
