4th wave and still no Finland. Shame. Seems like they're slowly but regularly dripping small waves of countries though, kind of unusual.
Still no love for Austria. But I can understand Apple's reasoning - a launch in a massive market like Austria would probably overwhelm Apple's supply chain.
Well, New Zealand ain't that populated either, so it might be a language problem with Siri;-)? I can hardly understand Austrians when they speak, so how hard mus that be for Siri
Heart rate monitoring was disabled in Russian version, because photometric sensors were designed to monitor blood, not alcohol .
You do know that you can purchase an American "cash" card and have one shipped to you immediately right? Through Visa, MasterCard or American Express... The delivery address has nothing to do with it.
Just order it from Germany. You'll pay only ~16€ extra (at least for Sports model) to have it shipped to Finland if you use Mailboxde.com.
To be honest, the watch makes little sense. It's a scorn here in America besides fans, let us see how far it goes. Even fans can't wear it to work, unless they don't look at it.
Assuming that the prices equate to what we pay in the US, if I were in the market for the Rose Gold Watch, I would definately buy it in Russia.... Just so I can say i spent a million on a watch.
An Apple Watch is a million . . . . Russia - Apple Watch Edition: 660,000 RUB to 1,120,000 RUB Rubles . . .
Heavily moderated thread. Sensorship at its best. Shame the long thought out Russian post couldn't be seen.
As we now know Apple cares a lot about celebrity opinions (I am looking at you Taylor), maybe we can get our Arnold Schwarzenegger to petition for Austria getting the Apple Watch… If that doesn't work, there still is Conchita Wurst…
