The real question is how do they wear?  I wonder if they patina? 

That was my favorite thing about the leather cases. They look awesome patina and scared. 

Its patina will be dirty it gathers.

Even the original iPhone was a hit and literally everyone knew it as it was being announced. 

Could someone please repost the classic -- and priceless -- AI thread from 2007 of the iPhone intro presentation for this person?

Pretty amazing for a 1.0 product ... but the price is going to scare away a lot of regular folks. 

The price will come down rapidly. In a few years, it may cost not much more than what the highest-end iPhone costs today.

Initially, it'll be pitched to developers, high-end gamers, corporations, universities, etc., and Apple will probably sell no more than a few hundred thousand. In five years' time, the company could be selling many tens of millions. Also, the fact that it seems to be thoroughly integrated with the iPhone, the iPad and the Mac will make the entire ecosystem of apps available right from the get-go makes it all the more attractive.

I've been a huge skeptic of AR/VR.

But this thing could be bloody brilliant.

Oh wow, big. 

Such innovation!!!!!
