You will not see new Apple Watch hardware til next year. The watchOS 2 and the native apps are in the Christmas season sales. My guess is Apple Watch 2 come next spring at the earliest if not fall.

It was sarcasm.
 
Come over and you can see me wearing one. I will introduce you to my wife which wears one. I will then take to my office and introduce you to two others that wear one. After work we can do happy hour with a friend of mine that also wears one. So in one day you can see five people wear the Apple watch -- what time should I expect you. :D:p:cool::);):rolleyes:

I'll be over in an hour. I got your address (1 Infinite Loop, Cupertino, CA 95014). Don't worry, I'll use Google Maps so I don't drive into the Pacific Ocean.
 
Since it requires an iPhone I guess it makes sense to sell it where they sell iPhones. I just hope Apple is able to tightly control the user experience. The way other wearables are displayed at BB is crap.

I would guess they will be displayed with the other Apple products that Best Buy sells and hopefully under glass. I think it is a smart business move that will be good for Apple and Best Buy.

I live in California and I've seen a lot of people wearing it. I've talked to about 10 people and I'd say 3 out of ten people said they don't like it or see s point in having one but then again one of those three received it as a gift so perhaps he didn't want it to begin with.
Most people have told me they love it. And majority told me at first they were unsure and had a little buyers remorse "like what is it good for" but then they say it grew on them and they enjoy it a lot. So I'm torn. I'm gonna thing about it longer. I tried I at the store. The apps opened really slowly. So I'll reserve judgement after that new update. Then I'll try again. I want to like it but it isn't up to par just yet. Especially for the price I'm going to pay. In my humble opinion


I can say the same thing happened to me. I did not see the point in a watch for notifications. Until I personally owned the Apple Watch...now I can see it's usefulness. For most it is very expensive and unless one has the cash to spend or saves for it you will find yourself being one of the only ones with an Apple Watch for now (I wish I had more friends that had one/could afford it). That does not mean it is a necessity. I do however enjoy the convenience of doing many things from my wrist without pulling out my iPhone 6 plus. I think eventually more people may invest in smart watches in general. Though I can say the same thing about ALL smart watches..in terms of not many people owning them. That is because smart watches are a 'want'. Not a 'need'. Though I am now in love with my Apple Watch it definitely took me owning it and using it to see the benefits of the Apple Watch. As well as the value.
 
Based on all of the excitement I'm reading about OS 2 it seems to me that the current watch owners see plenty of room for improvement. I am not one so I really can't comment on specifics. All I can say is that the current owners seem to be excited by future improvements so I'm going to trust their opinions over my own.

still did not answer my question, only supported my point. Along with that, yea sure, any operating system can use updates and have features added.
