Morning Howard, this is all guess work of course, but I reckon the 6 month time frame is to allow them to also incorporate connectivity to Alexia and those other iot voice command thingys. We know that a while ago they advertised for people with the skills to do this. Also from CES and Qualcom we know that they have developed a connectivity chip with less power needs which is suitable for earbuds.Justin has also said that getting Alexia etc into the buds was the next aim. Why bring out a model in 6 months (live) and then another shortly later (6months?) with iot connectivity? With the Boost the connectivity is probably not a big selling point but with ANC and connectivity the Live could be a giant killer. Caveat: my guess work is very often wrong
