Not a bad price, but it does require an existing Airtag.

Ten years is a very long time in tech. I wouldn't be confident that the Airtag protocol will be functioning in 2035, and there are already rumors of a new Airtag and possibly a newer protocol coming up.

I'd agree if it were any company other than Apple. And if Apple goes under by 2035 then AirTags will be the least of our concern.
