Like a $100 bucks at most? That poor family will surely buy every member a used car’s worth of device. And no, I don’t see it a reality neither in 3-4 generations — it is fundamentally more expensive to produce than a TV/laptop/phone so if its price lowers, so does the rest.
It is not a must like a phone is, so why would they not buy a really good TV instead for a tiny fraction of the money?
What makes a phone a must? Why can’t a pair of AR goggles (eventually) replace a phone? What if iPhones go the way of laptops and stop selling as much because people prefer an all in one device on their face?
That’s the sell here. You no longer need a laptop and tv and phone and touchscreen in your car. All that can be replaced with this one device.
Except that you don’t have nearly as good an input method for it than a smartphone is. Also, can you honestly imagine people walking around with something like this on their head?
Thieves and muggers are salivating.
