If I could use it as a genuine alternative to a monitor, and occasionally watch a sports event or concert on it “as if I was there”, that would be plenty reason for me to buy the Vision Air

If I can just use this as a substitute for a laptop with extra monitors, the value offer will be great. Mac apps don't really work/replace the iPhone form factor, so will be open to have new apps for a new Vision form factor.

I hope it has more than “we refined the hardware specs for 3 years”. Also it should cost less than 400€ - it’s a glorified iPod screen you put on your face.
