- berberous 13y agoWhile I admit his first review was comically hyperbolic, he really hasn't changed his view very much. In both posts, he states that the price point is critical. In this new post, he merely states that it will not hit the right price point in 2014. His last sentence: "By 2020 I'm quite convinced this will be a big deal and there will be lots of competitors by then. So, if you make it about 2020, then it isn't doomed. If it's about beating the Apple iWatch in 2014? Yes, totally doomed."
- SimHacker 13y agoI called Scoble a narcissistic douchebag eight months ago (Get it? Shower == Douche! ;). But I've known that ever since he live video blogged from in line to buy the first iPhone with a webcam attached to his trucker's cap. He replied "thank you", and then claimed that he found my criticism quite motivating (the psychological term for that effect is http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_supply http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_supply ), before he blocked me. https://www.facebook.com/RobertScoble/posts/10151579664444655 https://www.facebook.com/RobertScoble/posts/1015157966444465...
