I don't use nor want Apple Music - it needs unbundling from iOS.  

Then don't subscribe. I don't follow this argument. 🙄

I myself have used both Apple Pay and WalMart Pay. Apple Pay is quicker; WalMart Pay is convenient sometimes, but I recently noticed something new: previously, when using WMP, it would generate a digital receipt within the app. On my last two visits to WalMart, it not only generated the digital receipts but also printed out paper ones. That itself is one reason I prefer Apple Pay so as to not use paper.

Misidentification might also be an issue, given how similar some smartwatches can look, and the fact that many people don't follow wearable technology that closely.

I personally think a LOT of people are starting to follow the smart watch industry, especially with Apple Watch Series 3 buzz. I would hazard a guess MOST people could recognize Apple Watch...it's quite distinct.

On its own, stealing sings from catchers isn't against MLB rules. Transmitting them digitally is, as is using some other forms of equipment like binoculars.

Signs,* perhaps?

Was gonna get the Series 3 watch with LTE but Verizon wanted me to switch away from my current plan. No thanks.

I don't understand this. Upon selecting and ordering the Watch, I didn't need choose a provider.

are you sure you purchased the LTE version? what was the price? that's a way you could tell

update: i went through the checkout process to see with an LTE and no where did it ask for carrier information, so maybe its "unlocked" and agnostic 

Yes, I'm not a novice at preorders. I bought two LTE Watches. 

Additionally, from Apple's website: "How do I set up cellular service on my Apple Watch?"

Ordered my iPhone 8 Plus in gold and Apple Watch Series 3 in gold - with a catch, lol: I wanted the Sport Loop version first and when I clicked thru, it was unavailable for pick up at my local Apple Store here in Colorado Springs. I bought it anyway since it was still within the first wave of shipping on the 22nd. Then I went back and checked the Series 3 in gold with the normal Pink Sand Sport Band...and that one WAS available for pick up alongside my iPhone, so I bought that one, too. That said, the Series 3 in gold with the Sport Loop is now 2-3 weeks out. Perhaps thinking of hanging onto it and seeing how orders continue and reselling it on. Always an adrenaline rush doing this on preorder night!
