3499. Could this finally be the turning point and beginning of collapse of Apple?
Some of the stuff on display felt gimmicky, but I would imagine as bare minimum there are lot of people who are happy to have a private huge 4k screen they can move anywhere.
Although I still think it's pretty awesome, need to give it a few years and see the price come down and a few versions later, this tech will be very interesting in the 5-10 year time space, what a crazy time that is going to be with AI and all this stuff.
There is absolutely a market for this, the demo experiences are extraordinary.
I have no idea what the Meta experience is like, but even in ignorance, it's not like what this thing is doing.
They were correct in saying this is something only Apple can do.
There are a lot of isolated technophiles with money to burn to put into something like this. The idea of lifting your mac into space with nothing but a keyboard and mouse in front of you alone is enough for many to pop for this. Talk about bringing your office into the local Starbucks, this moves it to the next level.
It certainly seems better than Microsoft Hololens. Basically the same idea but with higher end hardware and more refined.
This does not look like to be a turning point either way, it is priced out of mass market adoption, but it will be an interesting toy for many.
So it makes no sense to price it at $399.
