We had one a month with Apple Vision Pro, we're seeing weird days with EU and Epic Games, plus the M3 MacBook Air is here, all on the AppleInsider podcast.

While one part of Apple was busy launching the all-new Apple Vision Pro computing platform, another was moving forward with the Mac. The new MacBook Air M3 was quietly released this week, and it's a case of nothing has changed on the outside, but it's a lot faster on the inside.

Although the M3 MacBook Air is now Apple's newest device, we're still in the very early stages of Apple Vision Pro development . So, Wes Hilliard talks about a month of wearing the headset — and, while an avowed fan of the device, he still knows there's plenty to criticize.

Additionally, more details have been revealed about the Apple Car's cancellation, and it's not what you'd call a pretty story. When we piece together the various pieces of information, it appears that Project Titan was an amazing mess from the very beginning.
