    I thought you made a joke....

    There is TONS of proof for evolution.

    So that's people that believe this is the only planet that has life on and/or that evolution is a theory without significant evidence.

    I suggest we stick to discussingthe Watch before the men in white coats turn up.

    Are they made like hotcakes?


     

    The size is standard for watches, size and thickness, for men's watches. Basically, you don't know what the hell your talking about.

    And yes theories are guesses. Plenty of scientific theories have been proven wrong when more evidence was found.

     

    Wow, just fracking wow. You missed 120 years of discoveries and hundreds of thousands of other proofs...  You're on my ignore list because you obviously no nothing and can't be reasoned with.

    It's time you had a great watch, like one which spell checks as well as doing other positive functions you could use !

    As in "watch" us rake in all this money while we "watch" you guys angstfully wait for weeks and months for something that resembles a wristwatch.  Ok.  I bought two - but that's not the point ;-)

    Sport ?Watch ordered just after preorders opened (a few minutes late), for my fitness aficionado wife. Delivery 4-6 weeks, 2-4 for a separate band.

    I don't recall seeing this 'all black' version before. Nice.

    As compared to what?  The ASCII web browsing capabilities of other smart phones at the time?

    Here's a list of the reasons why I bought the 1st gen iPhone at a premium off eBay and hacked it to work in Canada:

    - Text messaging & email were far better than other phones (no need to press number keys till your fingers bleed)
    - Music playing and management was miles ahead of anyone else
    - You could actually use it with a Mac.  Most smart phone makers only had Windows versions of their syncing software at the time because they have no software expertise.
    - Upgradeability.  With most other phones, the only thing you could do was buy a new one to get major OS upgrades (i.e. they were built on throwaway technology)
    - Being able to backup and restore information properly as I upgraded phones.  I can't remember how many contacts I lost over the years when I entered them into a phone which couldn't transfer them to a computer properly so that they could be moved to my next phone.
    - I knew it was only a matter of time before an SDK would be released given that the hacker community was using open source development tools that worked on existing ARM embedded systems and reverse engineering to create apps from day one

    But hey, keep convincing yourself that it was only a phone.

    And your reasons were everyone else's?

    same reason why they call it a phone or a pad

    Yet you said it wasn't a watch. Pay attention please.

    There is some evolution just not the drastic change type.

    I said it's not JUST a watch.  Just like the iPad is not JUST a pad or the iPhone not JUST a phone.

    But the iPhone was primarily a phone at first.

    It's always been at the end of the stainless steel models, right next to the silver steel link model, it just looks nothing like this in the pictures. For my money it looks way too glossy, like it's been spray painted or something. But the pictures of these watches have been painfully inconsistent. Really looking forward to seeing them in person finally.

    Ahahahahahahahaaaaa!!! Are you freaking kidding me? Please tell me you are joking or just bating us to reply?

    And you went and used the riduculously weak and limp phrase that has been used to death by the ignorant creationist crowd who have burried their heads so far into the sand that Australians are saying "Good-day cobba!"

    You do realise (obviously you don't but...) that a theory is the highest merit of any scientific hypothosis. It cannot gain any more credence in the scientific community. You may as well say Gravity is just a theory, or Heliocentrism is just a theory.

    Evolution is a fact, and an accepted fact that many many lines of evidence point to in so many feidls. To deny evolution is to deny what your own eyes tell you if only you did a modicum of research!

    But thanks for the belly laugh.

    Sure 120 years of fossil records that still doesn't prove evolution because there still isn't any creatures between kinds.

    So does the Watch.  Nice try son.

    <img alt="" class="lightbox-enabled" data-id="57706" data-type="61" src="http://forums.appleinsider.com/content/type/61/id/57706/width/500/height/1000/flags/LL" style="; width: 500px; height: 196px">


    I just noticed the center logo is two men.  curious.

    Primary usually means ONE THING.  You said the phone was PRIMARY a phone.  But I showed you no it wasn't.  It was THREE THINGS at release.  Just like the Watch is THREE THINGS at release.

    Put it this way, if it iPhone couldn't make calls would it have sold well? We all had phones, and buying a device that that did more made sense. Apple is betting that millions that have never owned a watch will buy the Apple Watch, and they're not going to pay more than they did for their iPhone for the convenience of having the time on their wrist.

    please enlighten us with these proofs.  And have 90% of the same DNA of a monkey is not proof.  That's like saying a Ferrari is the offspring of a Corolla because they have 90% of the same parts:  wheels, engine, doors, ect.

    I am not aware of anybody saying humans evolved from monkeys. Apes are very very distant cousins of humans, that shared a common ancestor millions of years ago. We may also share a common ancestor with a dog: a single cell amoeba billions of years ago.
    Until a few 10,000 years ago, there also lived a much closer cousin on earth, the Neanderthal. Apparently, there were also other types of our species on this earth, but all except Homo sapiens vanished. That at least, is the most likely cause of evolution given what we know today (which is quite a lot). But you are right, it may be all completely different. We may all live in a matrix, or we were planted here by aliens. I am not being sarcastic here, I do keep my mind open to such seemingly weird ideas. But you can choose to make up a world, or you can choose to try to understand the world.

    How many theories have been proven wrong? How many scientific facts have been proven wrong? How many different theories of evolution are there? They all can't be right, but they all can be wrong.
