Real hipsters of the real world aren't apple fan boys. The real hipster movement is to push away from tech and limit its importance in our lives to appropriate domains. Believe me, I deal with teenage apple fans on the daily, and they aren't hipsters.

We have vastly different hipsters here in Austin then. Austin is easily one of the hipsterist cities out there and they (for the most part) are Apple people. I don't know ANY hipsters without a phone at all... we call those people hippies...

I'm not saying that they don't have apple devices. I'm saying that most hipsters around here aren't fanboys of any device because they don't really give a shit about it. Here more and more "hip" people have kind of a "meh" attitude to their tech. It's a necessary part of their lives, but it's not something to agonize or be enthused over.

I hang out with a pretty artsy crowd on occasion due to my wife's business, and I notice fewer and fewer people on their mobile devices while hanging out in a bar. It doesn't seem to be "cool" to constantly be looking at your phone. Now the sorority girls and that whole crowd... they're still glued to their devices and taking selfies nonstop. Not so much with the indie/hipster crowd.

Negatory. You can pay $35/month for a dataplan into the tractor, but all it does is talk to the dealer (and probably mother Deere) and to other machines in the field if they also have a $35/month dataplan. Oh and there's probably a pretty hefty charge for subscription on top of the dataplan.

None of which creates a wifi network.

Makes me wonder why CarPlay and some of those other integration features between BMWs and iOS they showed off yesterday aren't going into John Deere too.

If I had to guess it is because Deere is a bitch. It's damn near impossible to run a Raven, insight, precision planting etc controller. I'd imagine deere tried to be the big swinging dick and apple said "LOL whatevs. I'm out."

Yeah, your "hipsters" don't sound like hipsters at all. At least not the kind Austin is overrun with. Many people consider Austin the hipster capital and I can tell you the average hipster here is a massive Apple fanboy. The two things go hand in hand. I WISH we had your hipsters, they sound far less douchey.
