Their adoption plan was just wrong. Few people want to give up their phones, and the general public has had enough of a learning curve struggle with mobile phones. The device didn't make sense, at least not in its current state.

The AI bubble will burst soon, and when it does, real innovation will happen.

They designed a product that doesn't solve a problem that anyone has. On top of that they designed something that doesn't even work well.

Yep, at high price+monthly fee, too.
