Phones/tablets are so insulating, in a way that a household-device is not. Consider the difference between watching YouTube on your phone vs watching a show with the family. Or playing a video game alone vs a multiplayer Nintendo Switch game with your kids.
My middle-school daughter's 2012 iMac recently needed replacement and I was considering a MacBook Air or iPad with keyboard case, but finally decided to replace it with a new M3 iMac instead. My reasoning was that if she's doing hours of homework every day I can at least have her around in a shared space rather than out of sight. It also makes me feel better about allowing her on the internet (which I heavily restrict), knowing that she is in a high-traffic area of the house while she is scrolling.
All that to say: this device sounds awesome and I would seriously consider buying one
Each new thing reaches maturity and market saturation eventually and they have to find something else but it's not related to tech only.
Yes.
