  • The Apple TV app on the TV is not an AppleTV, which is more like an iPad that uses your TV as the display. In other words you can download apps from the Apple store to the AppleTV, but not to the SmartTV. Your SmartTV will let you download the more popular apps if they’re available, but they’re not Apple apps. If you like Apple’s interface and controls, stick with Apple TV. If you don’t care, you probably don’t need the Apple TV. I didn’t set up an internet connection to my GoogleTV at all. The only thing that has access to the internet is my AppleTV. That way all my data that is collected/purloined/used without my knowledge is from one source only.








  • Your AW absolutely CAN replace your iPhone. You just don’t want it to. We used to wear windup watches that always stopped at the most inconvenient times, and didn’t carry a phone at all. The fact that we can become so dependent on something we didn’t even have when we were kids is pretty amazing. The AW can make and receive phone calls. It can send and receive texts. As far as every day needs, that should be enough. You can order from Amazon at home. You can send and receive emails when you get home or when you pull your iPad air out of your backpack. You can store your passwords at home. You don’t ever really need a phone on you.

    If I ditched my phone I’d start carrying a digital camera with me more. I do have a nice one and it is with me a lot, so I don’t even depend on the iPhone that much.
