Do you think Apple paid MS for this? Doesn't seem to be a profitable venture for MS, although they like the 'Onenote' everywhere roadmap.
No. I think Microsoft understands the potential of AVP and wants to have apps available for it. Expect more to come in the near future.

I'd expect the number of hours needed to do this basically amounted to a rounding error for MSFT. It doesn't sound like they really added anything particularly Vision Pro-specific to the app, so it's basically just their approach of being on all platforms continuing. I'm not reading this as a major bet on the Vision Pro from MSFT.

Correct. Microsoft (Steve Balmer) laughed when Apple introduced the iPhone. They lost a multi-decade long monopoly. I don't think they want to make that mistake again.
