Hey, it's Kim Commando today, your daily podcast to keep you up to date with all things digital and beyond.

And I'd love to have you be a part of our podcast.

You can make an appointment to speak with me.

Just head over to commando.com.

And on the top right, there's a button that says email Kim, fill that out.

And that's it.

I always like to start with something interesting. And despite all the attention that

the metaverse is getting, meta, of course, formerly known as Facebook, their stock is in

a freefall. But they're not the only ones that are getting in the VR race. Oh, by the way,

VR headset sales are down year every year about 12%. So guess who else is getting into VR? Okay, the company starts with the letter A.

It's not Amazon. That's right. It's Apple. And word out this past week that they're going to use a lot of

tech that's built into the Apple Watch and also iPhones and iPads. They're calling it a mixed reality headset,

instead of a VR headset. It has a physical dial that will switch to a view of the real world.

The battery pack is going to be on your waist, and then there's small motors that will automatically

adjust the lenses. It's going to be coming next year. The price, this is Apple we're talking about.

So a regular VR headset, maybe between 500 and 700 bucks, maybe a thousand.

Apple's headset?

Ooh, yikes.

Over three grand.

And Apple is thinking, too, about launching a new car, but like VR headset, it's taken some time.

Well, with the car, they have yet to install the windows.

I crack myself up sometimes.
