They can’t sell the $699 AI party trick that requires a $24 subscription so they slashed the price to $499. Unfortunately it’s still $500 too expensive for what’s worth.
Maybe at $10 someone could buy it as a Halloween costume prop and even pay a whole month of subscription just to show off the novelty
Unfortunately the hardware is so closed that even themselves can’t reset the software for refurbishing

Jfc. Can’t, or rather won’t, refurbish? That’s beyond stupid.
Maybe they really believed that this shit was so good that nobody would ever return or even sell it to third parties in the future
