2.) How can founders identify nascent and attractive markets that are ripe for disruption?

3.) How did Nick approach the pricing mechanism with Eero? Why do hardware startups need to have a greater margin than software startups?

4.) Why did Nick raise 2 rounds of funding before the product launched? Why did Nick decide he wanted to own all the parts of the production chain with Eero?
