I know there's been quite a bit of talk about this, but ... The real issue is a lack of communication. Prior to the pre-order, it was widely assumed that the watch would be available in stores on 4/24 (yes, I'm aware of Angela's vague email ...). It was also assumed that if you ordered on 4/10 - particularly if you did so near the time pre-orders opened - you would get your watch on (or near) 4/24. These assumptions were based on prior experience with apple and apples own publicity on watch availability. So to me, the issue isn't keeping the promise of the delivery window; the issue is poor communication by apple. A 2 week window is too long and too vague. And not being able to update it to a shorter, more specific time period - say 4/29 to 5/1 - is both unexpected and not up to par for apple. No one at Apple can answer the simple question for pending orders - what specific date is the watch delivering. That's upper managements fault in my view.

Forget everything you might have heard. I finally own the device. Been using it for a day. Every worry or concern should just fly right out the window because this thing delivers in spades and you don't notice it until you just reply to a text or something and suddenly it just coalesces into a feeling of pure artistry. Forget the size, forget the criticism. This phone just goes. Its made to be smooth and beautiful and Apple has done it once again. Everything about bend gate is meaningless. Everything about size and being too big is irrelevant. Nothing anyone says can deny the art that is happening here. A marriage between soul and technology. Such an elegant tool has never before been created by man. All the previous iPhones seem like just an evolution for the mastery we have reached now. Soon the iPad will match too and we will enter a new era of smoothness. I think this device is a flawless masterpiece of perfection IMO that flies high above everything else and is perched comfortably on top of the throne.

Do you think the Apple Watch preorder and launch has been a complete mess/disaster for one reason or another? Vote in the poll and share your thoughts below. Note that the poll question is broad (meaning if you agree for one reason or another it's been a complete mess/disaster, vote "yes"; if not, vote "no"), and can be applied to any of the following (or something else not listed here; this is just a list I've formulated based upon concerns expressed by others on this forum and is not a list of my opinions):

No offense to other countries, but it straight pisses me off that a American company seems to be favoring other countries with these allocation rates. I ordered 6 days ago, and have noticed PLENTY of UK/Aussy's getting their 42 WSB having ordered AFTER me. How in the hell is this fair?

Over the past 24 hours of owning the apple watch, I have received some positive and some negative comments. I welcome the positive comments, but I get really annoyed by the negative comments. I've had two close friends tell me that my watch is "exactly like an iPhone on your wrist" and "it's very ugly and pointless" and "you wasted your money." One of my friends even said "it's an ipod nano on your wrist, how is that new?" The sheer stupidity of that comment makes me cringe. Another one of my friends wanted me to defend the reasons why I bought the watch and continued to nitpick and press-on when I refused to defend myself by simply saying, "I got an apple watch because I wanted it and I can afford it. I don't feel the need to defend my purchase." It's been bothering me that people have the nerves to insult my new watch even after I tell them that I don't want to argue about it. What suggestions do you have to deal with the negative comments?

WTF.... :apple: im sorry but you are full of S*IT right now. Ive seen numerous accounts of people getting configurations before people who order the same in the same country before the time the delivered config person did. Its freaking ridiculous. I can't believe they are justifying the deliveries as a logistics thing. I think if you are in the US or whatever country you should get your config before someone who ordered the same after you. regardless. Its already frustrating that a big number of configs weren't even available at pre-order launch to arrive the "24th" . Now there is news of :apple: arbitrarily deciding who gets what when instead of going in logical order. That gets me fuming....... im not stressed. its more of the principle of the matter. dont tell people that the watch launches on this day and then not even have half the watches available to deliver that day. second dont deliver watches of the same type to those people who ordered after others in the same country, and then justify it by saying logistics. what really eerks me is that :apple: products are great and usually they are spot on with things; however, recently they have been things that arent :apple:esque. Now they are catering to celebs and just not being true to the people who have stood behind them since the Apple 2 days and color all in ones. Id say 80+% of people now who use :apple: because its a status symbol not because the product superior in the areas they need. Idk i just dont like how the whole release was handled. Not to mention I spoke to manager in Atlanta Two weeks ago who said that Angela (satan) wants to make every product online order. So you go to the store to see the item and test it then go online and order and have it delivered. The stores will become replacement hubs and product view centers. If that happens it will be a sad day.

I love all these tattoo haters commenting, calling people with tattoos trash. As if not having tattoos makes you better than someone who does? I have both arms sleeved, am 33 years old, make over $300K annually with my own consulting business and have a net worth of over $2.5m... Am I "trash" because I have tattoos, yet my suit and business clothing covers them no problem? This site irritates me with fan boys and geeks who only have the balls to speak up online with anonymity. I chose not to purchase this watch as I see no need, and this watch is the exact thing that will define you as a nerd- just like the Casio calculator watch did. I'd rather have tattoos than walk around like a geek with a souped up calculator watch..!

When the negative ninnies ask me if it can tell time I say "Sure" then "Hey Siri, what time is it" I read what Siri says and it is generally something that they have no quick comeback for. If you try it, just remember to smile big and proud-and a wink wouldn't hurt either.
