    Have you ever met an Apple fan? ;)

    Not one of the weird ones but I know people who only buy iPhones/iPads/Macs and I'm 100% certain they would just laugh at that watch.

    No mention of Apple Watch battery life. Not a good sign especially with so much involved.

    No difference whatsoever. It will be sim free too so you can pick aand choose your network.

    Any prices released for the 6?

    Love the Apple Watch - could cost me a lot of money - but need to see what battery life is like.

    The Apple site is updated with a new flat navigation bar design also. Even was a disaster overall.

    Not very impressive, the watch looks nice but has no real usefulness, disappointed there's no res bump, especially on the 6+, does it even qualify as "retina", and what's with doing away with 32gb versions. Worst unveil yet!

    I’m intrigued more than I’m wowed. Despite the name, this isn’t a watch, no more than the original iPhone was a phone or the iPad was a big iPod Touch. It won’t appeal to everyone initially. It doesn’t even appeal to me. But nobody should be dismissing it before they’ve used it and third party developers have had a chance to explore its potential. People have dismissed Apple so many times in the past and ended up eating their words. Wearables in some form definitely have a future. I’m not sure if this is it, but it definitely feels like the beginning of something.

    Happy enough. Nothing too wowing. Watch isnt something on my radar yet. V2 will hopefully. Getting the 6 in London any idea which store would be best to queue up at?

    Nobody is allowed to touch the watches that are on display. What are they hiding.

    Beta / buggy software maybe? The release isn't until next year. Why does everything have to be some sort of conspiracy.

    Tempted by the iPhone 6 plus. Will have to see what price it is. I have an upgrade due so it won't be too expensive hopefully.

    Wouldn't touch the watch in a fit. It's way too expensive and apple don't have the best track record with first generation devices. They get away with it because they have such a loyal fan base but in general it you wait a year for the next generation (usually the S) you get a much better device. So I'll be holding off on the watch for at least a year.
