#12Am I the only person more excited about the Watch 3 than the iPhone X?
I’m in the same boat. I’ve always been rather 'meh' about the watch - the only really useful thing I’ve found in a smart watch was the ability to display notifications on the wrist.
However with the addition of cellular data (and if it works as advertised and has reasonable battery life) it does rather .... exciting.
Shame it doesn’t support roaming :(

#13I was really hoping that the watch would be able to share a cellular plan with the phone. I'm not sure I'm willing to buy another cellular plan just for the the watch.
Where do you see that it requires a separate plan?
It was mentioned in the presentation. It has it's own sim card - something they called an "electronic sim" I think.

I'm most excited about the built-in GPS and music streaming, which would mean I can track my runs and listen to music without my phone. GPS watches cost $300+ anyway so this isn't a stretch.

No roaming is very bad since I'm a crazy business traveler :(

#16Still no round watch face? I feel my 2nd Gen Moto 360 and Samsung S8+ look considerably better than any of Apple's offerings. Disappointing.

It needs to because having a different number on the watch would make no sense.
I think they mentioned that the number will be the same
