Ok, granted there is a wild-card *.domain.com version of SSL keys that
the major corps usually get, but it's typically not the case with sites.
And I didn't mean to say that SSL keys required "WWW" but rather that
Verisign and the like require host.domain.com (all 3 parts), Apple's key
is specifically for STORE.apple.com, but my scenario holds true for any
hostname.

Does not seem true at all unless there is some redirect going on I just
typed https into my browser window and of the 8 recent site visits like
that
3 come back without www.

They are etrade and apple store to name a few.
