Still working with my UK account.

Have any press been given any hands on time with the actual device yet, because all I see on the website are CGI renders.

The Vision is very much the equivalent of a desktop computer (no Apple Maps, fitness apps, no cellular/GPS hardware etc.) likely because the risk of the device crashing/losing power resulting in blind user and a literal crash is too high. Perhaps once the glasses exist, which will presumably have actual pass-through rather than via cameras, this functionality will be added resulting in a more mobile, laptop/iPhone like experience.

Starting off, Apple has updated the popular Milanese loop with a new gold option to match the new gold stainless steel Watch. It most closely matches the stainless steel model, but will also work with the gold aluminum model. It runs $149 and only supports the larger 44mm model.

Nope, it’s available in 40mm. Also note that the price difference between the steel Apple Watch S4 with sport band vs Milanese loop is $100 so you can get it for a $49 “discount” if you get it when you purchase the watch.

Steve got it wrong. Tablets aren’t cars. Phones are cars, tablets are vans, PCs are trucks. (Watches are bikes?)

Has anyone who is against Apple’s CSAM plans proposed an alternative solution, especially taking into account the scenario where Apple enables end-to-end encryption on iCloud?

As my boss would say “don’t come to me with problems, come to me with solutions” but the only alternative solution I’ve heard so far is don’t do anything.

What's up with the red capped Digital Crown? Are they going to start selling removable caps for the Digital Crown? Meh. 

Maybe it's a tiny e-ink display that matches whatever accent color you have on your watch face.
