"A consumer electronic item of this price range would be uncharacteristic for apple. So, ruling out...

What Apple really needs right now is to have their own YC type program."

Rules out something because it would be uncharacteristic. Proceeds to recommend something even more uncharacteristic.

Quite interested, what are your thoughts on the state of robotics in the home at present? Are we headed to a Musk vision realised?

Pre-Cambrian. It would be incredibly antithetical to Apple’s principles to try and jump in as a first mover versus doing what they do best—watch and perfect.

100% agree. Who are they watching? That is an intriguing question... Is there anyone to watch?

Yes. There is drastic dearth in Apples lack of inspiring products.
