A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Except this device is hardly mobile and it's clearly made to be used stationary.
The device can be used mobile and I've seen several reviewers using the device while walking around in a public setting. It looks dumb, but you can do it.
I also think Apple is being conservative in what gets shown while walking because Apple doesn't want its customers to walk in traffic. However, I expect that to change as Apple gets a better handle on walking distractions.
In their demo video, they show someone working in the kitchen and my visceral reaction was "oh hell no". I just can't see any real world, regular use for this thing still. I am happy to be proven wrong though.
