    As I recall, the original goal was to build a product that allowed you to leave the phone behind so you could be more present in the world.

    Problem is, processing and battery power clearly isn’t there yet, and it would require a separate sim for that.

    A product that leveraged the phone would’ve been a better V1. It’s kind of the obvious conclusion everyone comes to when they play with this thing in the wild.

      This is the most tech bro thing ever.

      “Lets innovate ourselves out of a problem that innovation created”

      Imagine trying to invent a new class tech instead of just putting your phone down.

      I fundamentally take issue with the idea that I need to be saved from my phone.

      The primary reasons I use my phone are for communication and taking pictures. Well it was terrible at both of those things.
