If you missed it you can still see it. It is today’s Apple Live event announcing the new iPhone 6, Apple Pay, Apple Watch and more. It is a seriously big announcement and AgNerds should take notice.

Not only will the new iPhone 6 be available in two new larger sizes but the Watch (available early 2015) is more than what all the rumors suggested. There are three different versions/sizes of Watch and an infinite number of customized colors, bands, etc. Watch the movie that describes it to learn more. Apple calls it their most personal device yet.

So when it comes to new hardware this is a significant launch. Just look into the specs and you’ll see why.

But on the software side it may be even bigger. The new Apple Pay system which will allow you to purchase items without having to even carry credit cards anymore is a game changer. The new iOS 8 coming out Sept. 12 is a major overhaul that includes many new developer tools. With the new devices, screen sizes and operating system plan to have your ag app updated to take advantage of them. The AgWired App has just been updated by the way and I hope you’ve upgraded or installed it on your iOS device.

Wearable technology got a big boost today. Even if you don’t like Apple and its products today’s announcement gave the industry a shot in the arm. Just wait and see if we don’t have new farming applications come out of this next year!
