Tesla has such a lead in all EV areas, I can’t believe Apple would have much to contribute other than improving CarPlay. 

I’d also expect a much larger and longer lasting battery pack for the VisionPro. 2 hours is not going to cut it. 

Wonder how many focus groups Steve Jobs used to develop the iPhone?  Asking for a friend. 

Some good ideas and advancements with R1.  Remember Steve Jobs was about this age when he introduced the Apple Computer.  Apple needs to get off its rear end and start innovating again.  SIRI has done virtually nothing in the last 5 years.  The Vision Pro has a very limited market in its current configuration, though everyone says it's only the beginning.(we will see)  As a long time Apple shareholder, its lack of innovation is very concerning.  How's that Apple Titan car project that has consumed billions in R&D?  Maybe Tim Cook can invite the Rabbit CEO in for a conversation....

Instead all R&D funds will be aimed at designing AirPods with noise canceling as a service subscription.  Yes if you want noise
cancelling it’s an extra $5 per month.  This will be quickly followed by “see thru as a service” for $8 per month for your Vision Pro.  Apple R&D “we never stop not innovating”. (You can subscribe to the Apple Not Innovating Substack for $7per month.)

Do you really believe these guys were going to join a Chinese start up?  More likely turn over all they have to the Chinese Govt and Military. 

Carl Icahn is so glad he sold at 100.  As I recall he didn’t see much of a future for Apple. Luckily Uncle Warren sees things differently. 

Seems like a complete waste of time. Can’t believe they have something better than Tesla and Apple usually only enters a market when they have something that is markedly ahead of the current technology.  

Earnings will be the same as it has the past few years.  Narrow beat or narrow miss.  No new innovation, no triggers for future growth.  I continue to slowly divest for greener and growing pastures.
