Why does Apple need to wait for a manufactured event like this? It has so so much money it could easy donate $1 or $1million to Red and not miss a penny. All these ultra-rich companies with billions could and should donate to major crises like this to make them go away. Homelessness, cancer, AIDS, childhood hunger, they could resolve those issues overnight rather than turn them into “marketing” opportunities. This is the definition of virtue signaling.

Bottom. I tried on top and it was pert near impossible to remove the band when I needed it off. On top is leagues faster and easier.

I hope so. Cook is and has always been underwhelming as CEO and spokesman. His presentations at any event always always seem canned, stiff, awkward, and non-credible. He just rehashes the same old lines (e.g., “we can’t wait …”). He never seems convincing, like he’s just going thru the motions. He’s terrible as a spokesman for Apple.

I ordered an Ultra but I have no phone plan. All Ultras come with cellular capacity but no obligation or usability requirement that it be activated. It works just fine on wifi or thru my iPhone.

True enough. I’ve got one and I only ever see it on my wrist ;) Seriously, I’ve never seen it on anyone else.
