Those companies won't hold out for too long because if they don't get their house in order someone will take advantage of their absence, I hope they hold out long enough for someone to come up and take their place after all isn't that what everyone claims to want true capitalistic competition? EU, Justice Dept. the hater on the street?  

Their ultimate nightmare Apple rolls up its sleeves again due to market inertia (lack of support) iMessage, Apple CarPlay, Apple Maps, and Safari were created out of that necessity, somehow I think Google, Adobe, Microsoft and Netflix's greed and paranoia will get the fires going. However you can't have BlackMagic, Affinity, Notability, Figma, Morpholio Trace or GoodNotes climb higher, some third party company will use this new ecosystem opportunity to climb higher up that is what will be fun over the next two years looking forward to it.

I hope you're right, butI don't know about that.  They don't have to anything to allow their iPad apps to run on AVP but they disabled that. The usage numbers will also be low for this device for a long time, even as it's already the VR/AR that all else is compared to. I also don't think they're going to suffer a noticeable loss from AVP existing in 2024.

“But… but… but…, it’s because Netflix just hates apple!”

LOL

ITS BUSINESS. 

The ROI just isn’t there for headsets. 

1) In all my years on this forum you have to be the most consistently wrong troll that's ever been a member. I even have a suspicion that you're another poster that got banned  right before your current account was created.

2) If it's not corporate spite — which Netflix, Spotify, and Google have toward Apple — then why was Netflix's iPad app working on AVP previously and then Netflix took the added effort, albeit minor, to disable it being allowed to run on the device? Why do you think it's good business for any of those companies to not allow something they've already made and that is already idealized for touch input to not run on Apple's new product? The reason is simple and clear. They are jealous of Apple and this will hurt the AVP experience more than it will hurt their user ship... and yet, I have a feeling Apple will prevail and you'll be eating crow once again.

I love the  CEO saying "Apple is using our tech!" and then also saying "Apple's tech sucks!" LOL

If he says Apple's does not work then their patent technology does not work since they claim Apple took it. 
My default yes it runs twice a day on the Apple Watch, but people know if the want to check they can.
Battery life on an Apple Watch running all day, not going to work.
Personally I think the CEO is pissed off for the loss of employees and now no fees from Apple, HA HA

Apple hasn’t ever paid fees to Masimo. That was the point.  Also, the point of the patent system was to protect small companies like Masimo from pillaging and theft from large corporations like Apple. 

1) Masimo isn't small.
2) Your comment seems to imply that all larger companies should be railroaded by small companies with mostly invalidated patents. The only thing that kept Masimo's case from completely losing is one and only one juror not siding with Apple causing a hung jury.

Sounds like the right way to approach it. You also don’t want a bunch of randoms trying it out just for kicks and potentially braking something. Basically you want serious or just interested parties trying it on. 

You mean like they do every other Apple product? Going in and trying something is one of the ways you discover a desire to purchase. 

A supervised demo is fine for a fragile device. But a 25 minute speech means something’s wrong. 

The whole thing is starting to look convoluted 

25 min speech? 

Either you didn’t read the article or you didn’t understand it. 

That's what he does. Just negative, knee-jerk reactions with an emphasis on the latter part of the conjugated adjective.

The critics here seem to have forgotten that the  Apple Watch rollout invoked appointments and a walk though as well. 

Or that Mac, iPad and Apple Watch purchases come with a 30 mins product walk through done virtually. 

Perhaps they never knew these things, they really  don’t come off a particularly bright or informed. 

Nice example! I had completely forgotten about Apple dong that.
