Zoom for Home – DTEN ME

Why would anyone want a home working video product with a name that sounds like 'Detain Me'? What a ridiculous marketing mistake.

This is a natural extension for Zoom although I would use one. I could be wrong but it doesn't seem like a dramatic improvement to simply opening a new window to Zoom or Miro (for collaborative sketching) on my MacBook. I'm also fairly mobile in my workspace at home. I'm currently typing from our kitchen table and later I might work from the patio or downstairs from another table. That said, I might not be the target demo (even though I WFH). Curious to hear what other people think of this.

Not sure i see the market for this. - Spend $599 on a locked-in screen that can only be used for zoom, and will likely not have long-term support as its unlikely to get a lot of uptake - Spend $329 on an iPad and have infinately more functionality.

Interesting to see more 'Facebook Portal' style alternatives launch, but with a business focus. Smart move by Zoom in this WFH climate.

People were scared that Portal would spy them, how's this any different?

Seem the type of device companies would purchase, only to find they're not updated or supported a year from now. We're all on our laptops and tablets anyways and know apps there get updated frequently. We'll stick with that.

Why?
