\"Listen<\/a><\/p>\n

RUSH: I actually got an e-mail from a friend of mine in Kansas who said, “Look, screw all the rest of this stuff. The most important thing is your review of your Apple Watch.”<\/p>\n

No, it\u2019s not. That\u2019s not the most important thing. I\u2019ll be glad to give you my thoughts on the Apple watch, but they don\u2019t differ much from what I thought it was gonna be. I mean, anything you can do on the phone you can do on the watch. Or, the other way around, anything you can do on the watch you can do on the phone because the watch is, for the most part, 99% slave. The watch will keep time by itself. The watch will do alarms and timers and all that by itself, and it will connect to a Wi-Fi network that it knows by itself. Other than that you need your phone for it.<\/p>\n

It came in handy Saturday exactly as I thought. I played golf at a place that doesn\u2019t allow cell phones so I stuck my phone in a golf bag in a compartment nobody would ever go into and I wore the watch and I got some messages and notifications that I would have missed during my round otherwise. Thankfully none of them were emergencies, but that\u2019s exactly how I thought it would come in handy. It\u2019s pretty cool. I mean, there\u2019s no question it\u2019s cool, but I\u2019m just gonna tell you it\u2019s exactly as I thought. If I\u2019ve got my phone here and I\u2019ve got my watch and something happens, I\u2019m gonna use the phone. <\/p>\n

I\u2019ll tell you one thing where the watch is better. Siri. I am convinced, and there\u2019s been a couple of news stories about the new back end that Apple\u2019s used. They\u2019re on the third iteration of Siri it turns out, software wise. I\u2019m telling you the dictation on this watch is flawless. It has yet to make a mistake since I set it up and paired it Friday afternoon. It has yet to make an input mistake. It has translated everything I\u2019ve said 100 percent correctly. <\/line><\/p>\n

I\u2019m convinced that it\u2019s a different Siri and of course it has to be good because there\u2019s no other input. You can\u2019t type on it. The only way you can communicate to it is to dictate. In the messages app there are some stock things. You can click on the word “thank you.” You can click on “thanks,” “I can\u2019t talk now,” and send that, but you can\u2019t create anything other than with your voice. <\/p>\n

BREAK TRANSCRIPT<\/p>\n

RUSH: So I checked the e-mail during the break, “You didn\u2019t tell us about the battery life of the watch!” It\u2019s not a problem, folks, at least in my usage. And I spent quite a bit of time on Friday playing with it, using it much more than anybody will use it during normal course of events after you have it and get the playing with it out of your system. This watch for me is going to get anywhere from 16 to 20 hours on a charge. It isn\u2019t gonna be a hassle. But even if it were, I\u2019d just plug in the second watch, and use it while the first watch is charging. But that hasn\u2019t been a problem. In fact, the battery life is stupendous. If that\u2019s something that\u2019s got you concerned, don\u2019t let it be. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
