Apple sells nearly 1 million Apple Watches on first day: report

lol. True. Isn't Capitalism grand.

not interested, looks stupid, plus, why would I want to support a company that promotes sodomy?

How is that fallout shelter working out for you? If you stop supporting every company that doesn’t promote sodomy, you would stay home without electricity, TV, Internet, food, books, etc. You literally would have to stay in a blank room and sit on a wooden floor (hopefully you could AT LEAST find a company that sells particle board so you could sit on it. I know it is disgusting but that is truly reality in todays sick world.

Anyone with a partially open mind will spend a few minutes watching the videos at Apple.com and see what makes this device special. If you own an iPhone the iWatch provides a way to monitor your exercise habits. Imagine the watch letting you know to get up and stand for a few minutes (so you’re off your butt) or the watch letting you know if you’ve met your goal to burn 140 calories before you stop exercising. The potential for this device to act as a personal trainer is worth the price of the watch if that was the only thing it did. If you have a heart issue, age issue, exercise issue, this watch will be of great benefit. But then that’s just my take on it at the moment. Knowing Apple’s penchant for developing a product that exceeds expectations, the iWatch is likely to develop into something an average person will find desirable.

As far as I am aware Samsung doesn’t have a sodomite CEO, and doesn’t actively promote sodomy.

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:

[and yet...] Apple beats Samsung to become world's No. 1 smartphone maker
iOS grows to 73% enterprise share in Q4 2014, Android drops to 25%, and Windows Phone stays flat
[iPhone 6 profitably sold at $249, and yet...] Apple Took 89% Of Q4 Smartphone Profits With Android OEMs In A Race To The Bottom

haters gonna hate:

this was the most intriguing announcment in the recent big reveal from Apple (when I work, I work in health care):
