Meh. TechDirt is great for privacy stuff, but market analysis isn’t their wheelhouse.

I think Vision Pro pretty much accomplished what Apple wanted from it.

Tech press kept comparing it to “the iPhone moment”, but that’s ridiculous. It’s a dev kit.

A dev kit with the best hardware, at a lower price than the second-best, and a more mature OS than anything else out there.

We’ll have to see how it evolves from here, but it’s a perfectly fine first step. Not everything is for you.

nah, this is just copium. Apple don't release dev-kits to the general public. It was a real product, and it was a dud
