Indeed.

Whoever is doing these is clearly having fun with people trying to read a lot into them. If that team even knows what gets presented at the event (and there's a good case to be made that there's absolutely no reason they would need to know!), it could be both: a nod to Apple Park's rainbow pavilion*, and a hint at a wavy-looking product.

Plausible deniability…

Well, like I said, Apple's thing is looking to be a premium version. But it's a premium version of a market that's already kind of not very big, and seems to have fizzled compared to hype from the early Oculus Rift days.

So I don't think specs alone will be able to justify the price. The software experience will have to be really good.

(I also don't think "external battery pack" jives with "untethered".)

*) Did the blowhard who spelt color with a "u" come up with that spelling? This is wrong in French and makes no sense in English. If you're gonna pretend to be French, spell it "pavillon" and "couleur".
