I reckon this is a proof of concept model. It doesn’t yet have the onboard oomph to do graphics and games yet, so they’re positioning it as a spatial display.

This will probably be more limited than the v1 iPad, definitely for early adopters.

Technology used to be more about solving a problem or making something difficult easier. This thing has no real use beyond "neat". But that Apple logo holds some very powerful magic for certain people.

This is dead tech, they're only pushing it because it is 10 years of billions in R&D and a lot of egos involved

Mixed reality has a ton of potential seeing the Quest 3, but they are usually not seamless enough.

If Apple can pull this one off then 3500 is a lot of money but some people spend this much on a TV or a bike. If it's a truly amazing AR experience it might be well worth that price.
