    There’s always been a weird market for “luxury” tech that’s a gold-plated version of what everyone else has. I remember gold-plated pre-smartphone phones that went for ridiculous amounts of money; of course it becomes obsolete, it’s targeting those with money but no foresight.

      It’s targeting the ones saying stuff like “If you can afford a coffee a day… how much is a coffee anyway, like $100?”
