I honestly doubt this will take off, but it’ll be interesting as a tech demo for what AR/VR can be at the highest end.

    I don’t see mass adoption at this price point. What’s the point?

    I really don’t see the productivity sell. I do see it as functional entertainment to get more use out of an 800 square foot apartment in NYC. If my partner and I disagree on something entertainment wise I can throw them on. That’s about it…

      The point of this isn’t mass adoption. It’s to get developers to start developing for it. I’m sure within a couple of years they’ll release a non pro version for like a 1500 and people will be all over it

        Yes we are saying the same thing, mass adoption that was for this moment in time at that price point.

        Lower the price point and it will be more common, essentially when it’s no different than the price of a laptop.

      They will perfect this tech over the next few years, then put in mind-treading tech too, and sell it to you for 5 bucks. Don’t mind the mind-reading tech, it’s only there to make the product better, I promise.
