      I’m not going to buy something I don’t need right now. Especially when my buying it is denying it to someone else who wants it.

        Ok so just so we’re clear, you want Google to keep mass producing e waste that you and most of the world aren’t buying right now just in case someday you might want to buy another.

          They can reduce production to meet demand. Kickstarter and retro consoles have shown you can produce very small production runs at a profit.

          But Google’s attitude with all products whether software or hardware is that if it isn’t a monopoly market share product, they cancel it.
