A New Kid on the Block to Take on the Tech Giants

03/31/2025 5:52 AM

Elon Musk announced a new smart phone called Tesla Pi. This does make sense he has a way of creating synergy with his Starlink.

And will really put some badly needed competition against the iPhone and Android tech giants. This link seems like a promotional test marketing ploy.

i was wondering if he had this plan for Starlink. What I, or I should say how I was introduced to Starlink. I had some properties where to get internet service was expensive with existing service that had very low broadband width.

My onsite building/property manager mentioned and asked permission if he could set-up Starlink, after a brief discussion and with the initial cost aside it actually made sense.

I’m looking for more detailed information. Has anyone else heard of about this.

Some info on Tesla Pi site… wow, this is interesting,.. l better sell my Apple stock. And with the Teslas Automation infrastructure base as well as battery technology, as well as a streamlined distribution this looks like a great low cost alternative from what is now available.

This Tesla Pi site you link to appears to have no affiliation with Tesla.

Big cowboy hat and fancy boots, but no cattle.

I would suggest all due diligence be exercised before any stock sell off.

I agree, wise advice.

that's why I on the post I mentioned that it looks like a marketing ploy with cheap cut and paste.

Along with no details, as in what type of platform it'll run off of. The idea it's self would be great. But it would fill up bandwidth fast.

And now it appears to be a scam.

As far as my Apple stock, I was going to sell it anyways, and I'm in the process of looking into avoiding capital gains... and building my house to retire to.

Because I did buy it when it was dove to $94 a share over 10 years ago just prior to Warren Buffet breathing new life into Apple and bought a huge shares.

Sometimes one does get lucky.
