No matter if you feel the price tag is too high, or feel it’s a gimmick that won’t appeal to many, the Vision Pro will usher in a new era of apps and products.

To me, this is similar to when the iPhone was getting ready to be released. Many said it was expensive, had no keyboard, was too big and wide to be comfortably held, and would never sell. That all started to change once people got their hands on the device.

I feel that the Vision Pro will have the same effect, but this is one device you’ll truly need to test out and experience. Based on those that have been fortunate enough to actually use it, it’s not a gimmick.

    I literally lived through it…lol. And I bought it. It was exclusive to Cingular and then AT&T (they bought Cingular). I don’t need to look it up.

      If it was exclusive to them why did us peeps up in Canada have them too then? We don’t have Cingular or AT&T.

      Take your foot out of your mouth. This is a learning experience. Do your homework before you run your mouth.

      I paid 499$ (USD) for mine.

          In the USA maybe.

          I’m not arguing with you about something I had in my hand when you said I didn’t, that’s just ridiculous.

          Walk on.

            Well you sure as shit didn’t have it in Canada, considering it was never released in Canada. The first iPhone in Canada was the 3G and it was also subsidized but by Rogers in 2008, a year after the original launch. You had to have a contract and the data plan was mandatory. The iPhone price plans were also higher than standard plans to mitigate the cost of the extra subsidy on the 3G.
