IMO this will be a big part of the future of computing, Apple is on the right track, just going to take some iterations to get there.

There already are AR headsets with a more sunglasses type form factor, but for all the tech that Apple is putting in there now that form factor probably wasn't the best for now. 

On the pure gaming side of things, the Oculus Quest 3( I hate the Meta name 🤮) will be the uncontested king of standalone and PC VR for years to come and at about 499$, you can be sure even that pricepoint of Apple will make most reflect on the idea of this product.

Shoot ! This is even more costly than most commercial VR headsets on the market ...

Yeah, this will be DoA lol

This version is just to get the ball rolling, they're not expecting this to sell like the iPad or iPhone out of the gate. 

They are working on a cheaper model from the rumors too. 

There almost certainly will be larger battery sizes for people who want that, and you can still use it plugged in for as long as you want but 2 hours should be a lot for any kind of single use case where you're walking around with it on and no outlet around I would think. 

I don't think the battery thing is going to be as much of an issue as people think, even if you're like sitting down to watch a 3 hour movie on it, in that case you'd just plug it in, unless you are for some reason planning to watch a movie while you walk around the house? 

This is more like what the Macintosh home computer (the one that invented the mouse and a lot of the things we think of when we think of modern home PCs) ... it took over a year sell 500,000. 

They have like less than 10% global market share.

Macs contribute less than 7% of their revenue.

I am a mac user, even I know they are super niche. 

In my case taking into account currency conversion about the same, $315 Australian dollars a week and that's cheap for a good sized 2 bedroom open plan villa unit that because it sits on top of a bottom level made up of a large basement/rumpus room and garage the height affords me a great view of the bay and nearby sand  spit that marks the end point of seven mile beach.
