New toy/tool on the market, purchased one yesterday in the name of safety.

Apple Watch 8 SE gen 2, does some nifty stuff, but for me, it was the "crash detection" that sold it.

Been looking around for a hands-free notification device that would call 911 for me if needed, and I hope I never do.

Can be purchased in either GPS version or GPS/Cellular version, I took the latter.

If I ever get that much separated from my phone in that my bluetooth range is diminished, I still could get a signal out on the cell aspect of the watch.

You Veterans get that Apple Military discount, it is on their Apple site, and saves you 10%, and save the $35 activation fee the cell phone stores will charge you, which is a BS charge.

The apple store does that for FREE, and it takes 5 seconds.

Looking forward to the next toy, the Apple 14 with Satellite emergency connection build in, for those of the grid locations I might wander into.
