Happy launch day everyone! Enjoy your 38mm spay greys!

Oh wait...

Worst launch ever. At least we got an ad telling us the watch is here!

I was on the sidelines for the iPhone 4 launch (I was more interested in the iPod Touch at the time) - now THAT was a disaster. It made for great theater if you had nothing invested in it. This is a minor speed bump.
 
i'm absolutely DISGUSTED that, after saying NO IN STORE SALES, that now people can line up and walk away with a watch that we got up in the middle of the night to preorder, but WE AREN'T GETTING OURS TODAY!

DISGUSTED!
I came here because I am as excited as anyone about getting the Apple Watch, and wanted to see if it is reasonable to expect to get it in the next week or so. But I feel like I have to say something:

Take a trip to Cambodia and see the killing fields. Be a volunteer to bring aid to Haiti. Or hell... read an article about how ISIS is beheading children. In other words - get some perspective, and then get over yourself.

99% of the world envies your life (the bottom 5% in the United States are still wealthier than 68% of humans on earth).

Shouting how "UNFAIR" it is that someone else got a watch before you did is a mockery of how comically unfair that you are getting a watch at all. Some people will starve to death today.

You can be disappointed. I am. But that's it. Apple didn't take anything away from me. I'm just not getting a luxury item as soon as I had hoped. Mild disappointment is the most that could possibly be warranted.

Learn to enjoy your life. It's pretty damned good.
 
just saw the ups man near my house on my way to work. Then I remembered I'm still "processing." Way to kick me when I'm already down.

Stop being so sanctimonious on a message board.

The bottom line is that Apple obviously was not prepared with the space grey watches, and it's going to show today. One would think SG with a black sports band would have been predicted to be the most popular model, but someone dropped the ball and some people are angry about it. People work hard for their money and have a right to be irritated when they spend it and things go wrong.
 
was the applecare for your 38mm Space Grey? I'm just looking for some hope

Yes, an :02 order. Still no other charges yet. Just happy to have some movement. I always assumed I would have it closer to May 8th, but sooner is even better!
 
Preparing to ship!!!! 38 sg 3:01:37, EOD RECIEVED

Finally. Congrats guys.

I'm in the next wave, but at least they're moving out of the factory.
