You Can Get Your Apple Watch Starting in April

The Apple Watch will arrive in April.
Apple CEO Tim Cook revealed the news this afternoon, during a conference call held to discuss the company’s earnings for the first fiscal quarter of 2015. “Development for the Apple Watch is right on schedule,” Cook said.
When the Apple Watch was unveiled in September, the company said it would arrive in “early 2015,” and recent rumors indicated a March launch date.
Others companies, most notably Samsung, have offered internet-connected watches. And countless other outfits are exploring other kinds of wearable computing devices. But the Apple Watch is perhaps the most highly anticipated.
It is the first entirely new device from the company since the iPad tablet, which was unveiled five years ago today. As Apple said when it revealed the Apple Watch in the fall, the device will sell for $349, and it will connect to the internet through your Apple iPhone. Among other things, the device will track your fitness, send and receive messages, and let you pay for goods, both online and off, through the new Apple Pay payments.
