Couldn't Apple have just put the watches on another couple tables, tether them, and let customers see what the experience is like? Why do I need to have an employee put a watch on my wrist? Apple is ok with attaching computers worth thousands of dollars to a table, so why is the watch different?
Seems to me this is all a big marketing play to create demand. Some won't mind, but I become offended when a large corporation thinks it can manipulate me into wanting a device. To be frank, the last 12 months at Apple has been disappointing. They still look out for their customers, and want to create the very best products of great quality, but if a squint and really look closely, there seems to be a little bit of "big corporation" starting to squeeze through, if that makes any sense. Certainly doesn't feel like the "think different" company that embraced the likes of Bob Dylan. Now we are getting Gold iPhones, gaudy overpriced Beats headphones, Gold MacBooks, and expensive watches where Apple seems to be relying a great deal on their marketing expertise.

Samsung sucks. They make glitchy products of low quality. People always try and say that people who buy Apply products are the "sheep." That was always crazy to me. The real sheep were the ones who were buying the inferior products, just because. The iPhone is 10 times anything Samsung has ever been able to put out in the phone space.
