This was the only Apple product I DIDNT wanna know anything about before the keynote tomorrow. But it was too hard to look away...
I'm not sure whether from that blurry set of photos you have learnt anything today!
iMac -> 1998
iPod -> 2001
iPhone -> 2007
iPad -> 2010
They have always taken their time to innovate. For the most part, they've always presented variations of what already existed. They're still on track though, so let's give them a chance; regardless of the design, which comes down to personal preferences and availability of technology at a realistic price point, I'm sure they are not going to release a watch just for the sake of releasing it.
I think the iWatch will be packed with great ideas...not sure if they will get it right on the first try or whether they'll need another iteration, but I'm sure they know what they are doing.
My Body is Ready is a catchphrase mainly associated with image macros wherein the subject is posing in a seductive manner or smiling creepily, similar to the usage of Draw Me Like One of Your French Girls. In discussion forums, the phrase is often used to humorously convey ones excitement or anticipation towards the impending arrival of a desirable object or an event. The expression may be also used in counter-response to other Internet colloquialisms like Prepare Your Anus.
Origin
The phrase was originally uttered by Nintendo executive Reggie Fils-Aime during the companys demonstration of Wii Fit at the E3 press conference held on July 11th, 2007. As Japanese game designer Shigeru Miyamoto and translator Bill Trinen unveiled the Wii Balance Board, Fils-Aime walked up onto the stage and stated My body My body is ready before stepping onto the accessory to start the demonstration.
I`m starting to think you cannot read....or you do not read before you reply. Please read.
1. There is never a mention of a camera in the article. There is never a mention of water resistance in my questions either.
2. My question is not about the camera. You brought up the selfies hence camera.
My question is, can the device be waterproof with a speaker and a microphone on it? Do underwater cameras have speakers on them? Microphones?
I would say water resistant would be a _minimum_ to getting into the world of wearables. (The waterproof stuff is just semantics). If the device was not water resistant then it would be useless.
But then there's no reason for anything to leak of the iWatch... Apple can keep things 100% secret if they just choose to release it a few months after the announcement and keep it internal within the walls of Apple.... Just like with the first iPhone and iPad... So, I would expect leaks way before the announcement... or after it... Just not one day before it..
I don't see your logic here, the first pic is of the internal sensor hole both round and labelled as both P2B and EVT, then the second pic shows two square housings again labelled as P2B and EVT.
This is disappointing, suppose I'll have to throw it on the wireless charger while I wash!
Indeed, it looks nice. Of course, it runs 'Droid, a somewhat unoptimized version at that, so it's useless to me. I just love how Apple comes out with this hard-edge, chamfered design language, everyone and their supplier copies it and then Apple about-faces (or so it appears they will). Guarantee In 18mo everyone will have round-edged tech gadgets. Just in time for iPhone 7 to come out.
