Or, you could just stop frittering your day away with countless useless messages.
“Whether it was in my pocket or on the coffee table or near the front door, the Watch allowed me not to worry about my iPhone needing to be with me at all times to remain connected. Life without the Watch reminded me of the habits I developed to make sure my phone was always near me. I would make sure to always put it in my pocket as I moved around the house or carry it with me from room to room.”
BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Was he using one of the $10,000 gold Apple watches or a cheap knockoff?
I am an Apple fan, but that watch is a loser.
The sales numbers are such that Apple appears to be pulling an IRS on the results.
I had to wear a watch on my job for 25 years. The day I retired, I threw the watch away, and haven’t used one since. I’ve used Apple desktop and laptop computers for many years, but have never owned an iPod, iPad, or iPhone. My needs are simple.
Then you cannot use an Apple Watch. . . you don't have an iPhone which is a requirement for use of one.
I didn't know that. Thanks for sharing that bit of info.
No one but Apple knows the sales numbers. All others are guesses pulled out of their navels. We know the approximate initial production run was about 2.5 million and Apple was sold out of those in the first ten minutes of opening the Apple Watch for pre-sales on April 10th. . . and has been playing catch up ever since and making watches to do it. They finally caught up enough to finally start offering sales and delivery in their retail stores on June 26th, just twelve days ago. That is a remarkable number of Apple Watches to be sold. All reports indicate that Apple has already sold more Apple Watches in the first day that they sold iPads in the first month. That is NOT a failure. . . especially considering that up to now, the iPad was the fastest selling release of any new product in history.
Care to continue complaining about the Apple Watch sales with those data now?
You're welcome. There is so much misinformation running around. . . and we are coming into what I call FUD season that occurs every time Apple has a major announcement coming up. It usually is the three weeks before the announcement. In three weeks Apple will be announcing the results of the last quarter which should include the number of Apple Watches sold. The FUD spreaders will be spreading negative Apple news all over the place in the next three weeks. Watch and see.
FUD = Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt. Invented by Microsoft in their campaign against Apple twenty years ago. Now being run against Apple by Samsung with the assistance of Google.
He has transferred his addiction from the phone to the watch? Hilarious. And Apple is laughing all the way to the bank.
A week? I’ve gone months without one.
This guy need s to get a life.
From a pure capitalist perspective, I can tell you that my company is pursuing an aggressive iWatch strategy. The sales are big. The integration with Health kit is huge.
I think it’s a waste of money, but we have to follow the market.
I’ve had my watch for 2 1/2 months. I agree whole heartedly with the Author!
Sounds like the "vast right-wing conspiracy"
We definitely know that Apple ain’t gonna make their 20 million watch mark. Not even close. That’s break-even territory to the years and years of development. They’ll lose money on this tinker toy and waste 4 precious years of tech time chasing a rock to the bottom of the lake.
Nice going there Apple. Apparently they can’t do anything right but phones. But they do a wonderful job at ostracizing conservative minded and Christian consumers with their radical political agendas and products that look like they’re designed for effeminate Marxist euro yuppies. Perhaps they should just change their name to Rappel and get into selling rainbow colored sleepwear instead.
Sounds as if you did not even bother to read the article.
