Apple Vision Pro – Why Monitor Replacement Is Ridiculous

This is just revisionist history.

iPhone 1 sold 1.4m units at a much lower price point.

It was better than the competition at its time but definitely not a mainstream phone.

You’re crazy. The iPhone 1 was amazing on day one—even with all its limitations: no 3G, no App Store and no copy paste.

BlackBerry and Windows Mobile looked like horse drawn carriages comparatively. The writing was on the wall.

The limiting factor for sales, IIRC, was the $500 price tag. That was fixed the next year.

Thanks for jumping in! I still own my iPhone 1 and still works perfectly - cheers.
