Apple has begun seeding the third beta of watchOS 2. The new firmware is slated to debut in the fall and comes with a handful of new features. The beta firmware will be available through Apple’s iOS Developer Center. This beta comes in nearly two week after the first beta of watchOS 2.

watchOS 2 comes with a lot of ‘this should’ve been on watchOS 1’ features such as: native third-party app support, access to microphone and speaker and third-party complications. We’re not sure what’s new in the firmware, because we’re downloading the betas ourselves at the moment. If you do notice any changes, please leave a comment below.

Last month on April 10th, Apple opened up pre-orders for its latest gadget, the Apple Watch. Some customers were disappointed to see shipments ranging from 4-6 weeks to July. Luckily, Apple has been pushing out Watch orders fairly quickly. Though, some models have yet to ship at all.

The largest delays seem to be the Apple Watch with link bracelet (both Stainless Steel and Space Black Stainless Steel, $999-$1,099), the Leather Loops with Stainless Steel case (all colors, $699), and the Modern Buckle with Stainless Steel case (all colors, $749). As these models have yet to be shipped at all.

It seems that the Apple Watch itself is holding up pretty well, it’s the bands that are causing the delay. Specifically, the Space Black model seems to be having the biggest issue. As some Apple Stores don’t even have them on display or for try-on appointments. It’s also worth noting that the company updated the images of the Space Black model, showing a much darker representation of the Watch. This may concern some customers as Apple might have some consistency issues with the coloring of the Space Black model.

On the same line, the Space Gray Apple Watch sport had some shipments go out on 4/24, the original Apple Watch launch day, though the Watch is still being backordered. 9to5Mac confirms that silver models of the 42mm Apple Watch sport are shipping at a higher rate than the 42mm Space Gray Sport model.

If you take a peek at Apple’s Online Store you’ll see that Apple is preparing to offer the Watch in-store in the United States and other launch countries, listing that the Watch is “available soon” on the Apple Store iOS app and Apple Online Store. The option is greyed and is not selectable by the user.

Up until this point, all Apple Watch orders including Watch bands must be ordered online, exclusively. Soon, customers will be able to order online and pick up their Watches in store. Upon arriving at the Apple Store, customers will be required to provide valid government photo ID and must match the name on the reservation and product.

Apple originally planned to offer the Watch in-store, but due to manufacturing issues and high demand, the company revoked the idea.

Slice Intelligence notes Apple has sold over 1.7 million Apple Watches, though they’ve only been able to ship 22% of those ordered. Slice said last week that Apple had sold just under one million Apple Watches on day one.

They also gathered their data by scanning emails by over 2 million participants who have opted in for the service. Gathered from this data, only 22% of the orders have shipped between Friday and Sunday.

The report goes on to say that 33% of customers had a ship date of April, 28 for May and 38% with an unknown ship date. From what we can gather, those who have June ship dates are being pushed up the queue with either mid-to-late May ship dates, or pushed all the way up and having shipping units.
