They've been taking the shotgun approach for a while. Their product isn't any individual component, it's the platform as a whole. Why people want a company that sells: - Phones

- Computers

- Tablets

- Headphones

- AR headsets

- Cars

- Watches

- Streaming boxes

- Speakers

- Fitness routine subscriptions

- Music streaming subscriptions

- Video game subscriptions

- eBooks

- Apps

- Cloud storage

- Credit cards

- BPNL
