Okay well as a developer I'll just wait until they make the cheaper version which everyone will buy (assuming they even do because Apple is nothing if they are not fickle). There is no advantage in being first in a market in which no one occupies.
Yeah, same here. I’m holding off on this thing, even if it’s a platform that might be interesting to develope for in the next couple years.
Although, the large and midsize businesses of the world will have no problem throwing down for this toy. I already know a bunch of folks in the valley that have had their teams throw a little budget to this. People spend that monthly for flying a single remote person into town. This is chump change if you have 500 or more people.
Oh absolutely. Said that I know for a fact my company owns one at least, and I also know for a fact that they don't have a clue what to do with it.
Businesses will develop their own internal applications anyway so they're not really a market demographic for app developers.
We tested it and after about two weeks returned every purchase. It didn't do a whole lot more than what our current solutions do; not even accounting for the asking price.
