    I’ve always assumed that I would be sitting down on a couch while using it.

    Why is there a typo? What is the typo? What should the headline read?

  • Understanding spatial design for visionOS

    I think that I would prefer immersion over Passthrough. For me, I think Passthrough might be more distractive. Of course, I also don’t have a family. Passthrough might be more practical if you’re surrounded by family.

    My original plan, when I saw the product intro, was to buy the Vision Pro when it came out this year. But I have now decided to give it a pass. A hard pass. This product is not going much of anywhere. It will have some important niche uses, but even that will take a few years. (If you think I am mistaken, do correct me; the general level of "meh" as reflected in the lack of enthusiasm for it in this forum supports my views).

    As a shareholder and a four-decade customer of Apple, I truly hope Cook et al. have something more needle-moving up their sleeves as a next product or service. 

    For the first time since the early-to-mid 90s, I am worried about Apple's growth prospects or rather, the seeming lack of any. Revenues have been flatlining-to-declining, and I hope that does not continue (although I am pessimistic, at least over the next year).
    I don’t get it. What changed between watching the intro and now? I don’t know if it will be worth the money, but I might buy one. I would probably use it to watch TV shows and movies and web surfing. I agree with you that it is a niche product, but I knew that after watching the intro.

    Why is he continuing to make comments like this?  There is no way that this will ever be verified, unless Apple announces pre-order numbers on 2/1.  If he’s close, does he get a cookie? 

    As seems to be the case lately, Kuo Doesn’t Know™️.

    The man seems to be jumping at straws to stay relevant around this new product.
    The Vision Pro is clearly a new device category if one believes Apple's marketing.  So *iff* it's a success, it should have its own category during Apple's financial reporting.  But I doubt it will be successful from a financial perspective, so Apple might clump it into the "wearable" category to hide from investors its minuscule contribution.
    How would it not be verified? I'm pretty sure analysts will have a pretty good idea after it launches whether the real number is closer to 80,000 or whether it's closer to 400,000.
