  smartwatch and a mobile payments platform on

  bigger, rounder and faster. The Apple Watch does
  more than any smartwatch on the market today. And

  its security and ease of use. New, bigger
  iPhones "Today, we are launching the biggest

  ever done." The iPhones have curved edges, bigger
  screens, bigger (longer lasting) batteries,
  faster cameras, and the iPhones will come with
  Apple's new iOS 8 software, featuring a new
  HealthKit application. Both iPhones will be
  available Sept. 19 in the United States and eight
  other countries. The 16 GB iPhone 6 will be
  available for 199. The 64 GB version will cost
