I honestly doubt this will take off, but it'll be interesting as a tech demo for what AR/VR can be at the highest end.

Wow I had no idea (or didn't remember) those even existed. I thought it came out around 2005 when the nano was released.

Yeah that's it exactly. When it finally exploded, it EXPLODED, but for the first few years it had relatively very low sales. But Apple stuck with it and kept fixing the major flaws that it initially shipped with, and once enough flaws were fixed it went gangbusters seemingly overnight.

Same with the apple headset. It has some major flaws, as people have rightly pointed out, and as a result it's not gonna be a huge seller at first. But Apple will likely stick with it and keep improving the flaws and eventually it might be another iPod level success. Or it might be another failure like the touchbar era laptops. Time will tell.
