Reuters: The Apple Watch launched globally on Friday with a small queue of Japanese tech-addicts lining up in Tokyo for Apple’s first wearable gadget, but there was no sign of the excitement usually attached to the company’s product rollouts. Buyers can take the smartwatch home from a handful of upscale boutiques and department stores. But the gadget will not be sold at Apple stores on Friday. The company is directing people to order online instead, which should prevent the lines of Apple devotees who typically flock to iPhone and iPad launches.
