180k developers is a lot.
180k consumers is barely a market.
I think it's mostly developers, though. I ordered one, to try some immersive data visualization stuff.
- stcredzero 3y agoI ordered one, to try some immersive data visualization stuff. Considering what Dall-E and the like are capable of, I suspect that AI will be able to lay out data for us. This includes tasks where multiple web and smartphone apps are opened and data is entered. These could be opened grouped in framed windows, with process lines drawn between them.

- tlb 3y agoYes, though it's not a great market. Usage tends to be low (they sit in a drawer) so there's not much follow-on app store revenue, and developers don't target your platform. "Developers! stomp Developers! stomp Developers!" is actually great wisdom.
