You're probably right, it's been "in development" since 2013. :weep:

Did I miss something today?  :unsure:

I think you know exactly what you missed, and you're doing your usual "I'm above such mere human trivialities" things.

I had to look up what Liep was talking about initially. But then I also hadn't been on buzzfeed or yahoo news yet. :blush:

You're still adjusting to your transatlantic shift, so you get a pass.  Even though you've found the time to date already.   :glare:

A maxxed out gold Apple Watch will sell for $10,000. :o

I want one (well, not the $10,000 gold one), but no way I'm buying a 1st generation apple product.

I read somewhere that Apple will buy up so much gold for the Apple Watches that there is pressure on global demand for gold, because it takes up a significant chunk of annual global supply. 

I don't understand what the appeal for an Apple Watch is.  The screen is far too small to do anything useful.  What exactly is the purpose of the watch?

That's ridiculous.

Tons of gold are produced per year.  Primarily for jewellery of all sorts of course.

The huge majority of Apple Watches will not be gold.  Only a handful of the premium Apple Watch Editions will be gold, and each of them will have much less than an ounce.

The Apple Watch will have no meaningful influence on the price of gold.

Correction:

The new Mac Book has only one USB slot.

The new MBA still has the regular assortment of slots.

Ok, I'll defer to your knowledge on this.  But I think one is totally unacceptable.  Three is ideal.  Two is manageable.  One is cruel and unusual.

Apple raised the prices on all products today because of the weak Euro. :weep:

'HBO Now' exclusively on Apple. That's great news if it means HBO Nordic can be watched on Apple TV now.

Wonder if Comcast will block that like they block HBO Go.
Experience bij!

Nope.  $350 for a watch that has all the same functionality as a $99 Pebble?  No thanks.

Where do they do that?  We've got Comcast here, I can get HBO Go and Cinemax Go through Verizon Wireless.
