I was disappointed that this WSJ piece failed to mention another obvious absurdity of the Vomit Pro :

at least some portion of humans get debilitatingly nauseous when using it.

(As made clear in a NYT review : Message 34570421 ))

excerpts :

--------------------

When using the headset for work, you can surround yourself with multiple floating apps ­ -- your spreadsheet can be in the center, a notes app to your right and a browser to your left, for example. It’s the 3-D version of juggling windows on a computer screen. As neat as that sounds, pinching floating screens doesn’t make working more efficient because you need to keep twisting your head to see them.

I could tolerate juggling a notes app, a browser and the Microsoft Word app for no longer than 15 minutes before feeling nauseated.

---------------------

Next I tried the headset in the kitchen, loading a pizza recipe in the web browser while I grabbed and measured ingredients. Moving around while looking through the camera, I became nauseated again and had to remove the headset

--------------------

I do not think that Apple Crapple can overcome the way someone's brain responds to this issue.

Jon.
