Getting your hands on an Apple Watch Series 2 in time for Christmas has become nearly impossible for holiday shoppers.
Demand for the new watch has ticked up to a new level in the last month, according to Apple employees, who told Cult of Mac that stores are selling out of the Apple Watch Series 2 so fast that production can’t keep up.
Less than a week after dropping its last batch of betas, Apple has seeded new beta builds of iOS 10.2.1 and macOS Sierra 10.12.3 to developers this morning.
The new updates bring a number of performance enhancements and under-the-hood improvements, but it appears that no major new features have been added in the latest builds.

You can never have too much storage or battery life with your smartphone. The iXtra case adds more of both to your iPhone, with up to 128GB of built-in memory and up to 2,000mAh of additional juice.
It could be the perfect iPhone case, and you can claim yours now on Kickstarter.

Apple has secured the right to sell the iPhone 7 in Indonesia after committing to investing $44 million in the country in the form of an R&D center.
The investment helps Apple get around a law stating that, from January, all 4G handsets sold in Indonesia must comprise 30 percent of “local content.” This can include hardware, software, or an investment commitment.
Losing one of Apple’s tiny new AirPods will probably be an unfortunately common occurrence for customers/ Apple already has a plan in place that will allow you to buy a replacement pod when you invetiably lose one, but it won’t be cheap.

Apple’s launched another heartstring-tugging ad in time for the holidays, with an iPhone 7 commercial showing a teary-eyed dad filming his daughter in a school play version of Romeo and Juliet.

Thanksgiving might be over, but with a new year right around the corner, it’s time to think about whether we should be thankful for Apple in 2016.

But was all that enough? Is this a year you’ll look back on fondly as an Apple fan, or is it one to forget? Join us in this week’s Friday Night Fight as we decide whether we’ve been thankful for Apple over the past 12 months.
