This seems kinda reasonable for what it is? It’s not the usual kiosk device that other companies have tried, it is just a touchscreen on the top of a cylindrical speaker. Probably will let you access most of the same controls already present but now with a UI capable of giving better feedback.

Nowhere in the article it says it can’t just be a standard kiosk design. I agree with the commenter above that having a touchscreen on a normal homepod like that is strange.
