Not only do you have to purchase an Apple Vision for every dev on your team, your company will need to pay $10,000 for a DUNS number just for the privilege of developing any iOS app.

I think the overhead of the Apple Vision hardware costs probably outweigh the "first to market" effects given such a small number of sales of the Vision Pro so far.

The iPhone has 1.3 billion active users vs. 200,000 units sold of the Vision Pro, so your crappy iPhone app reaches an audience of nearly 10,000 times more potential users.

So, unless there are 10,000 times more native apps for iOS than Vision Pro -- 6,000,000 or so iOS apps vs. 600 for the Vision Pro -- then I'm not sure the math works out yet.
