Apple Online Store Down Ahead of Apple Watch Pre-Orders

I'm getting the milanese loop watch and want the black sports band extra. Should I order together or seperate? Excited

Thank you so much for being so very smart and clever and trying to protect us from ourselves. If I need protection, I'll seek it from someone who isn't so arrogant and egocentric as you seem to be.

Hey... I'm not trying to protect you (or anyone else). I'm excited about the new tech. I'm just killing time waiting for the Apple Store to go on line, so I can buy a new watch. Sorry, if you got the wrong impression.

I really hope this isnt like the iPhone 6 preorder. This "we'll be right back" page is so frustrating. My friend was on it until 3am and never got in. I dont understand why they cant figure this out with all the cash they have. Also, why would they release the MacBook the same time? Even more concerning is that with the phones many people go to ATT or whatever carrier to purchase as well relieving stress on the Apple servers. Let us pray

Yep. I preordered my 6 through AT&T and got in at 11:45pm PT. I'm a little concerned it still isn't opened on the site. You'd think a billion dollar company would have the world's best servers.

They are supposed to be available at 12:01am. There is still a few minutes. The issue people had with the 6 was that it was like 12:20 and the store still wasn't up. I don't expect this will be nearly as bad.

But you're paying upwards of $700 for that privilege. You can buy a Pebble and still have that functionality.

Yes, but I have seen the Pebble, my guy at the office has had one for a year and loves it, but this is the reason why I am up tonight to order the Apple Watch - the Apple Watch will be so much better than the Pebble! Smart Watches are a good idea and many people will soon be wanting one if they haven't yet understood all of the good things this tech can do.

You are up tonight to get the Apple Watch too right? Or just staying up late and posting negatively about the Apple Watch in hopes to affect the stock price or something haha. Just makes me wonder.

Time to order now! Yay!

I get 75-100 phone calls a day as well as a multitude of text messages and emails. The ability to glance at my wrist and see if the notification warrants my attention without having to pull my phone out of my pocket is priceless.

The thing about change is that it's gonna happen with or without *you*. :rolleyes:

You get a call every 10 minutes for 16 hours a day? You don't need a watch. You need a secretary.
