or you could just go to an Apple Store and just watch it for free, if the staff can remember where they left the headsets

I still think this will be discontinued within 2 years.
The majority even forgot about this product.

Good thing that innovators for any of those and so much more didn't give up on early rejections/resistance. Else, I might be writing this with a quill & ink under candlelight to have to mail to you by horse.
Yes, but you are not likely riding around on a Segway, watching Betamax content, drinking New Coke or using Juicero in the mornings. Most new product/technology introductions fail - some of them spectacularly. I (and the marketplace) put VisionPro in that category - All the Apple hubris and pretentiousness is just the cherry on top.

I'm one of the seemingly odd-man-out people who thinks Vpro is great and offers much potential. With the whole industry chasing a bigger mobile screen goal, it seems like an ideal crack at the target in that it can stay the same size & weight while delivering ANY size screens... far superior to fold & roll options (where size & weight scale with screen size)... and it works in brightest day (too) vs. the projection option. That said though...

These cartoon-length videos are great and all but so little. Watch this one for 6 (SIX) minutes and the experience is complete.

Put some of that 46.9% margin-driven cash hoard to work and line up a deal for March Madness VR which virtually puts Vpro owners courtside for any of the games. NBA tournament will not be far behind. USFL? NHL? Soccer & MLB (with which Apple already has a business relationship)? NCCA F this Fall? NFL this Fall? Nascar? Formula 1? Ringside? WWE? Olympics? World sports? And on and on.

And for those who don't care much about sports, Broadway show series? Cirque? Music concerts? Travel "explore the world" series? Museum VR? And on and on.

I don't get why Apple doesn't allocate a budget and talent like they did for AppleTV+ to forge deals with those in control of such exhibitions to simulate the illusion of being there. There's big wins- including monetary wins- for all parties involved. Get some of this kind of thing going and Vpro as an entertainment device gains much opportunity.

For example, in various playoffs, tickets to one event can be north of $10K. Again, that's for ONE game. Send in some "look around" cameras and partner with whoever owns the event for optional play-by-play and all not able or willing to pay $10K could get great seats to that game for much less (even after paying "too much" for the Vpro device one time). Seat 20K virtual bodies in that same virtual seat to make the money part work for the venue/team, the partner and Apple.

Yes, Apple would have to put up some tangible money to buy their way into these kinds of deals but that's comparable to putting money towards software for any brand new platform. Even the now-ubiquitous TV wouldn't have sold had there been nearly no investment in programming to watch on it. Apple seems to have built this relatively amazing tech but then kicked the ball to third parties to come up with the content/apps/programming that can make it a success. I believe whatever investment went into developing the product should be allocated to developing desirable content/apps for it too. The quality of the content (experience) will draw an audience to new tech platforms. Few- if any- are "build it and they will come" propositions.

Imagine if TVs were just getting launched now... and there would be 5-8 minute programs to watch, being released every couple of months. Why buy one of these "crazy expensive TVs"?
