Dear Mark, Thank you and Simon for the vital info. Mark, there’s no need to feel bad about anything. After all, the watch hasn’t arrived yet, and I now have the correct steps to take and I feel well-prepared. We all make mistakes one time or another. :)
I’m sure I’ll be boring everyone with more questions before long but each time I’d better start another thread. I need to know, for instance, what glances are, and what type of bluetooth headphones that would connect both to iPhone and Apple watch people use.
