Yeah, we've been spammed badly! I've texted Chip.

We've got the sport version of it, and have nothing bad to say about it. Will definitely get a newer version down the road.

An alternative...seems to promise a lot...

Well, I have to say that I really admire all the modern technology. However, I simply don't want to be connected all the time. And rarely even take my cellphone with me. I love the internet, and spend more time on it than watching TV. But all that stuff is my entertainment at home. I have admired the looks and build quality of the Apple Watch, though, but really can't see myself ever getting one. If I did, I would probably really have fun with it the first few days, then the novelty would wear off.

Fortunately, I enjoy my work, so I don't want to be connected there very much. Sometimes I take the phone if I have an appointment or get-together after work, and might need to get hold of someone to tell them I'm running late, or maybe one of us has to cancel. But even in my youth, I have never considered talking on the phone to be a pleasure. Matter of fact, the sound of a ringing phone whether at home, at work, or during any leisure activity causes me nothing but stress. So I try to avoid the phone as much as possible, and having an Apple Watch that requires connection to an iPhone would be a big negative for me.

Nevertheless, as I have said, nothing but admiration for the technology, and certainly a  to those involved in advancing the technology and those who enjoy it.
