I love the forum here - and had lots of "fun" following the "Did you get your 42mm Stainless Steel BSB Band" until I got mine. (Felt sorry reading all the posts of people not getting theirs - though my son is still waiting to receive the one we ordered for his birthday and still shows a July shipping date.)
But most of the threads are still about the shipping/arrival/airline flights - which I do realize that is most important to all those who have not received theirs yet.
Imagine how many less threads there will be once the majority of people get their new Watches???
(Sort of like at the Apple Support Forum after Apple - hopefully - releases the first software update and - again hopefully - corrects some of the "health" reading/calibrating issues.
 
MacRumors is like Fort Lauderdale at spring break. Lots of amateurs show up to use the place for their first big party, puke, then leave.
 
You'll all get your watches and do one of two things:

1) Love it and not talk about it anymore.

2) Complain about all your first world problems, such as how you're now bored with the watch because it's not an iPhone on your wrist, or you're upset that you have to charge it every night (even though charging is as simple as laying it down on the night stand), or that Apple screwed you over by making you wait this long to get it.
 
We'll talk about future updates, cool new apps and accessories. Oh, and people will complain about this and that because they're bored with the watch after a few weeks. They will then think it's pointless and will say Apple is doomed.
 
Don't forget about the endless complaining and moaning about something either not working to somebody's standards even if it's working as it's suppose to be or something Apple "SHOULD'VE" done that they didn't do that they plan to put in the next version as an "upgrade".

Thankful I have a life outside of this place once what I order arrives.
 
Everyone will probably flock over to the Apple TV sub forum when the new Apple TV launches.

It's still next month allegedly right ?
 
I'll come back to read the old threads with the whining and gnashing of teeth over a $400 and up toy. I mean, really? I expect it out of my 12yo daughter but I know not everyone on here is a 12yo girl hitting puberty lol! Lord help me.
 
well, if it follows the iPhone history, there will be threads on . . .
water damage

scratching (OK, these are here already)
