every best buy i’ve walked into during the last 2 months, i’ve paid attention to a few areas to gauge interest.
the iwatch areas are always completely abandoned.
if you go to the apple store, the faithful will gather round most tables... except the iwatch table.

As far as buying Apple products the Apple watch ranks lowest. Gives the buyer the least prestige say in Manhattan.
I would say:
-iPhone gives the most status
- then comes Apple 15” laptops not the dinky sized jokes that are 13.3”
-then ipad

- Apple neither makes, advertises, nor displays for sale a product called "iWatch."
- Apple Watch sales in select Best Buy stores started on August 7, eighteen days ago, not two months ago.
- How many times, and how many BestBuy stores did sten visit in two and a half weeks?
- The CEO of BestBuy makes a positive assertion in a Financial Conference Call referencing the strong sales of Apple Watches and their change in plans to extend sales from just 300 stores to all 1050 stores because of that strong demand, a statement that if false can result in fines and penalties under the Sarbanes Oxley Act of 2002, personal fines and penalties of up to $20 million and twenty years in prison for making false statements in a financial report.
- My girlfriend and I were in an Apple Store about two weeks ago to pick up her new pre-ordered MacBook. We were there for all of twenty minutes or so. During those twenty minutes we were waiting in a very crowded store, I saw six Apple Watches (four sports and two stainless) sold, which should counter sten's anecdote. I have a witness.
That pretty much shows that sten is making up his claim as he's types his post.
