Well, I have to say I expected this to cost more.

I would want to hear what the sound is like but it seems like it could be a good replacement for my OG HomePods while adding some new features, even if the screen is minimally useful.

I am a bit sad that it seems like it isnt using anything the video apple put out about https://machinelearning.apple.com/research/elegnt-expressive...

I would love to see them open up an app store for this, or even if it is apps tied to your phone like the Apple Watch.
