Consider the customer audience here when looking at this product. CarPlay makes sense since it binds things like existing steering wheel controls and a bigger screen to the existing phone interface. It’s also free with an existing device.
Meanwhile an iPad can cost less than $300. Do you really get an additional $700 of value by adding a robotic arm to a stand? Especially when you consider whatever Siri features they add to this would either also exist for the iPad or be arbitrarily not added to it just to hock this robot arm that holds a screen?
