    Another question: are those earphone strongly decrease non-continuous noise(like talking) ?

    Maybe i'm optimistic ,but building a dsp that connects to a few mics and an earphone amp using low latency adc's is protected. And the other stuff is software, which in general is …

    Sure, you'll probably need dedicated low latency hardware. But that's probably relatively cheap, and shouldn't prevent apple ,or even a smaller company doing something in that area…

    An alternative limiting factor could be the lack of great, low cost ,measurement tools. But there are some signs we're getting there, like this[1] chip based platform that can test…

    Another guess is: they are competing on price. Nobody else can offer a mayday like service at that price point.

    One big question - how much does mayday cost for amazon ?

    One view is that , as far as eCommerce , mobile is really hard(very low conversion rate) and nobody has yet cracked the formula.This could be a very big risk to amazon if someone c…

    Be realistic. What's the likelihood it's a bomb vs the likelihood of propaganda ?

    If it also has non-fiction books - which usually are very amenable to skimming , or to reading just interesting parts , it's a very good value for $10.

    So do you see some IOT tech that could spread without needing a router in every home ?

    In my eyes, the ideal rotocol would be one that fits, but doesn't need any router at all. While not excatly that, lora , a long range(kilometers) low power/cost protocol, seems lik…
