There are still <a href="https://gigaom.com/2015/02/26/three-big-questions-before-the-apple-watch-event/">many remaining questions about the wearable</a> and Apple is likely to answer them all at its &#8220;Spring Forward&#8221; event in San Francisco at 10am PT, Monday, March 9.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll be on the scene, live-blogging the event right here, sharing more about the device&#8217;s features and pricing as the product story unfolds. It&#8217;s also possible we see other new, or updated products, <a href="https://gigaom.com/2015/03/05/why-a-new-12-inch-macbook-air-could-debut-alongside-apple-watch/">such as a 12-inch MacBook Air</a>. Tune in right here for all of the details as the event unfolds and don&#8217;t hesitate to leave your [company]Apple[/company] Watch questions in the comments; I&#8217;m sure to get some hands-on time with the newest watch that doesn&#8217;t have hands to get you some answers.</p>
