I think this is just incredible. Let's suppose they have an incredible technology and that works (which it is not true at this time because they don't have any product out yet). How do they justify the product adoption which such high valuation? (with patents of products they also don't have any idea if the people will want them?).
Even it is the best technology ever, if not enough people buy it the company will go down very quickly.

I suspect that they spend a lot for content, because growing organically is almost impossible if you target entertainment with an rumored $2k price point. Nobody would buy that if the're only a few apps, even if they're unlinke anything else. Then, as the next step they'd need to provide a good developer experience. Needing a PC for a device that aspires to disrupt the industry and replace other devices, won't cut it. It would need to run on the device.
- jorgemf 9y agoan OEM of a technology that noone wants to use? I hope the content is really good and worth the experience, otherwise this is useless. But I am still afraid that if they have to create their own content it might not make sense as a business, why people wouldn't be interested in created content for the next audiovisual platform? I don't think the PC is the problem here.
