Consider this for the next release...
We've seen that Apple is willing to have a leasing program with their partner Citizens One. Other than some first day hiccups there's been no complaints I can find or heard about. I think the program is successful enough that Apple would consider it for other products...
Like the Watch.
Think about it - you can get an Apple Watch Sport or Apple Watch on a payment plan with AppleCare+ included in that price. It would end up being roughly the same cost over time but, instead of shelling out $399+ at the time of purchase, you spread that out over 24 months with the option to upgrade whenever the next Watch is released.
I could see Apple branching out and getting this into as many hands as possible. It would be a brilliant move by the company and really allow them to take over the wearables market.
