Forget your Home; you want a Nest

Planned obsolescence: Production runs for smart devices seem to be getting shorter and shorter. Smartphones are a case in point, with new models coming in every year and older ones dropping out after only a few years. Now Google has discontinued Home Max speakers after only three years in production.
If you were hoping to pick up one of Google's Home Max smart speakers for Christmas, forget about it. Not only is the device out-of-stock in the US Google Store, but the company told Engadget it discontinued the line. You may still be able to find them through othervendors, but only while supplies last.
