      It’s not that this isn’t, it’s just that most people don’t know why it’s a good idea or how. The execution, here was the problem, not the idea itself. Especially the awful price tag.

        I just don’t see it taking over the world in such quick fashion as the phone. Like VR I think it will remain a niche

          It’s also not as hip and sexy as the iPhone was at the time. People didn’t care how well the iPhone worked at first. They just had to have one because it was the coolest thing on earth at the time.

          My iPhone legit got me laid a few times in the first few months I own it. It got me the phone number of Del Marquis, the guitarist from the Scissor Sisters at a party in November 2007. I’m not fucking kidding. I would like to think it was because I was that smoking hot back then, but no, he was more interested in my brand new iPhone. (I was very hot back then, but my iPhone was hotter.)

            Exactly. Well… not exactly as that particular story was very particular indeed.

            But it was what I meant. I don’t think the goggles will have the same effect, even you in your prime tauting them.

                I know that story sounds fantastical and difficult to believe,

                Well I didn’t really doubt it, as it’s way too specific to have been made up and it’s fun to imagine, but with goggles on, lol. Thnx for sharing!

          Which is why I think Apple is really trying to make this an AR/VR type device. I think that AR will gain much more popularity out of the two.
