> (Netflix, Facebook, Google) not producing apps for it right away Why would they want to? There's no money in it I think. I'm guessing the software engineering is pretty daunting. It's not like everyone has one. And in FB's case its a competing product. I think the AVP will sell eventually to a limited market. Even at $1500 I think the market will remain limited. Meanwhile Apple continues to upgrade mostly what benefits them not guys like me IMO. In a recession I could envision a long slow decline in the reign of the iPhone. Particularly as IMO Apple's fallen behind with AI which is perplexing as Siri was early out of the gate. - My thinking made me wonder how happy Android users are: 44% Very happy, and I'm not upgrading 36% Happy, but might upgrade for right phone (combined 80% happy) 11% Not unhappy... can't afford/justify (combined 91% feel OK or happy) 8% Not happy, looking to upgrade ===== Probably not scientific but that's pretty good. I'm still using my 3 and 5 year old $80 androids. I'm happy with them. I'm waiting to move to upgrade so my new area code will match my location.
