My biggest problem with my Apple Watch is the heavy reliance that all apps still have on the iPhone.

For example I was in London for work and wanted to use an app on my watch for simple route planning on the Tube.

It wouldn't require internet functionality as the map works offline on my iPhone so no reason not for it to work on the watch for a simple station to station guide, yet no app would work without the phone and th speed was useless. In the end I just went back to pulling out my iPhone.

For me it is situations like this that really stop the watch being of true value outside of a fitness device.

Amazon is getting to the "good enough" sweet spot before Apple is even out of the door and that is a serious problem.

At this rate Amazon will be the entrenched standard with Apple acting like Windows Mobile, too little too late.

Ugh, what a horrible name.

I don't understand how they let the Mac lineup get in the state it's in.

With their money they could easily have upgraded the line up with new internals whilst they finished off any innovations that they wanted to roll out.

Piss poor management, very unusual.
