That's because the technology sucks. If it really was revolutionary, $3500 would be a bargain.

People pay that right now for gaming computers. If it could replace that, it would be worth it. Many people own toys more expensive than that (motorcycles, boats, jet skis). People with mobility issues spend that amount on their wheelchair and can barely go to the Grand Canyon, let alone more remote places.

It's just a technology issue. It sucks.

The technology is years ahead of anything else.

Why are you comparing bleeding edge technology to a motorbike? Literally the stupidest comparison I’ve seen.

You clearly just want to shit on the product and have no intention to having an honest discussion.
