The reality distortion field better be at record levels next week because I still don't get this headset stuff. I'd understand it as an R&D side project to be ready for 15-20 years from now when battery/compute tech might be ready. But this moonshot approach of throwing tons of resources at it and shipping something maybe even this year? Just don't see it working out.
Jay 🆘@paul It's not coming. Brace for the avalanche of articles next Monday talking about how it's "facing further delays."
@paul There is no "killer app," nobody wants a face computer, and Apple has been beating the drum of *augmented* reality, not *virtual* reality, but people talk about them interchangably.
AT MOST it's a device aimed at AR developers to give them a common, predictable environment on which to test complex interactions for use on other or future devices.
But I'm also prepared to be 100% wrong.
@paul Apple releasing a consumer product with an external battery pack that hides the world from you? It doesn't pass the smell test. But I'm also an idiot, so.
@paul The speculation is fueled in part by people's relentless thirst for another "iPhone moment."
@jsit the product feels fueled by Apple’s desire for another “iPhone moment”.
