'General Magic' tells story of Apple vets who created a smartphone, 15 years too early
> The General Magic project was, of course, a failure, for a few reasons
I've talked to people that worked on Magic Cap, and to a person they say the same thing - it didn't work. At all.
One went into intricate detail of why it didn't work, and made it sound like it simply never would.
So there's that, which is apparently not mentioned in this article, or one assumes, the movie.

Apple again said to cut HomePod orders on poor sales performance
Which it isn't. It doesn't even control Apple products unless you have a subscription. You can't even buy it here in Canada. Canada!hmurchison said:The market fit is phenomenal. What the HomePod is supposed to do is be the multiroom audio controller for a wide variety of vendor products.
What part of this is phenomenal?

Apple HomePod sales 'underwhelming,' AirPods still growing, analyst says
> It's a shame if this is true, because the HomePod does sound amazing
Sure, but my Yamaha stereo with two nice Mirage speakers sounds better. And that setup cost the same as a Home Pod.
It's just too expensive. This is an accessory, it can't cost as much as a full-blown iPad. And everyone knows it.
If you can't do it $199, don't do it. It's not like someone was forcing them to sell one.
