My favorite part is this nugget from the marketing materials:
Yeah, I would fricking hope so Apple
And up to 2 hours of use? Good luck watching movies on a plane without bringing along extra batteries for this thing.

Punching people in the back of their head and stealing their $3500 goggle videos in 3, 2, 1

They come out with this shite but if they would simply make a marine version of an iPad (basically a direct sunlight readable screen and NEMA connections to retrofit existing tech until they took the industry over) they could print money at $5000 a unit for the 12" version. Boat owners are paying upwards of $20K-50K for a ton of NEMA connected components that have to be cabled together to a central processor/screen that has 10% of the computing power of a base iPad. Even a basic chart plotter with 7" screen can run twice the price of a 10" ipad.
They also missed a great opportunity in Automotive. Car Play is fantastic, but 7-8 years ago they missed the chance at taking over the car electronics industry with slide in removable ipads that were even at the time capable of doing a ton more than what car makers are just now implementing.

Didn't something similar tank facebook's stock a year ago?
As an Apple investor in not worried as Apple has a much larger war chest than Facebook, and can afford a miss on a novelty item like this. But I gotta ask... What's the point?

Flop like the watch?
No. The watch wasn’t priced stupidly.

These apple fanboys will unhinge their jaw and take anything Apple offers down their maw.
I remember airpods and the apple watch being ridiculed early too. Now they are ubiquitous.

quote:Tim Cook has been at the helm for 12 years, that is such a laughable comment.
The decline of Apple under Cook officially began yesterday.
And that's coming from someone who owns zero apple product.
