And... The Apple Watch! “The long wait times for the Apple Watch, which saw shipping estimates slip <http://www.macrumors.com/2015/04/10/apple-watch-shipping-estimates-slipping/> for many models less than an hour after it became available for pre-order. All models sold out in less than six hours <http://www.macrumors.com/2015/04/10/apple-watch-sold-out-launch-day/>, and orders placed today won't ship for months. There are a lot of buyers who are facing delivery times that span into June, July, and August”
And before that... The iPhone 6 & iPhone 6 Plus Pre-Order online Store debacle. The Guardian is reporting Tim Cook’s future with Apple may depend on the Apple watch. "And if the watch fails, Apple’s board and shareholders may find themselves asking whether Cook truly is the right man for the job." <http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/apr/04/tim-cook-activism-steve-jobs-apple-watch <http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2015/apr/04/tim-cook-activism-steve-jobs-apple-watch>> Cheers, Ronni > On 14 Apr 2015, at 8:44 am, Rod Blitvich <rb...@iinet.net.au> wrote: > > http://macdailynews.com/2015/04/13/distracted-by-apple-watch-apple-blows-retail-launch-of-new-macbook/ > > <http://macdailynews.com/2015/04/13/distracted-by-apple-watch-apple-blows-retail-launch-of-new-macbook/> > > "Apple’s press release clearly states: “The all-new MacBook will begin > shipping Friday, April 10 through the Apple Online Store, Apple’s retail > stores and select Apple Authorized Resellers.” > That did not happen.
