Oh I am definitely not saying they came up with any of that. I'm just saying they were laying the groundwork for their own ecosystem.

And sure, desktop mirroring is in every headset but sidecar isn't "plug a cable in and mirror your screen" it's project your screen to another device you own without any cables. That's more attractive for someone with a few apple devices.

Also not saying others haven't done that, but it's an ecosystem and having the talent for a thing.

    I'm saying Apple is testing out their own implementations of things and getting the people needed to do it well before launch.

    Just please actually read what I'm saying.
