Last fall, our great-aunt passed away. We could not travel. Clara and I sat shoulder to shoulder in front of the V060 as the service streamed. The screen’s wide viewing angle meant we could lean into each other and cry without one of us having a cramped neck. A small thing. A profound thing.

The V060 enables this delicate dance: we share a resource without fighting for attention. It is a communal object in a world of private screens. I am a freelance copywriter. Clara is a remote medical transcriptionist. We both need focused, silent work environments. Neither of us has a private room.
