I think Apple’s most costly failure would be the car, but this could get close.

I’m guessing that anyone who kept it would be tech savvy enough to be on visionOS 2. While it’s not nearly the step forward I’d like, it’s an improvement over 1.x.

Not sure what's all the negativity for, got a chance to try it out in the apple store since they're doing demos now in europe and it was really cool. Had a friend that was very sceptical of the whole thing and both came away impressed. Are we ready to drop 4000euros on it? nope. But I really hope apple keeps sticking with it and improving it so by generation 2 and 3 it's something for everyone.
Apple will. These negative people have no real clue what's coming their way. The current AVP is for very early adopters and developers only, it's not a general consumer device. The price should be enough of a hint.

TIL visionOS doesn't use Semantic Versioning ('https://semver.org/'). If there aren't features, not sure what makes this 1.3 vs 1.2.1
