> For the price of a Vision Pro, I can drop a few large displays at the places I frequent often.
What about other places, like hotels? What about trains and planes?
Even at home, I wish I could get rid of my TV and make it disappear when I don't use it. These new display glasses already take way less space to store than monitors. If they get the tech to the point that it's as comfortable to watch as a TV and just barely more expensive, I could see myself getting rid of my TV and saving the space, making my living-room nicer. I'd also get a screen size I'd never consider for my living-room because of how much space it takes.
And that's for entertainment only, for which I'm usually reluctant to spend much. If these devices become good enough to do long work sessions on them, I could have exactly the same setup everywhere which would be huge for me. I could also get rid of my monitors and reclaim my desk space. I think that's when I'd buy such a device.
So in a way it's already here. Maybe not everyone will have one, so it won't be like mobile phones. I've never had a tablet either, that doesn't mean they haven't been successful enough.
