Nice! 2 hours ago in case anyone was wondering how old the screenshot is.

Don't they also require a unique shipping address? I have doubts that the eBay scalpers are anything more than one-off people selling their 1 unit because they know they can get another one later.

As a launch day index owner with thousands of hours in VR, the index is solid but outclassed by anything modern. The resolution and fresnel lenses alone, not to mention the bulky weight. On the quest side, there are plenty of people who would happily choose an equally specced quest 3 without the quest/meta software.

I'm sure plenty of budget conscious people will be happy staying with their index or quest, but I don't think it'll universally be a hard sell. And for anyone who doesn't already have a quest or index, the frame slides perfectly into the premium / quest 3 to pro budget segment of the market.

Yeah a little desktop extender for the dongle to plug into vertically should work great, I use them for my full body tracking dongles to get them closer to my play space and it made it flawless.

They've shown people using it with glasses, I imagine it won't be much different than the Index, as long as you don't have winged frames or otherwise large frames there's a good chance they'll fit. Or you can get inserts or use contacts. I've done all 3, glasses with my index, inserts with my beyond, and contacts with both.

Do you have that factoid tucked away in your brain or did you look it up just for this comment?

I can't wait to use this as a smart TV launcher

All wearable merch seems sold out. I tried to get the hot sauce but I guess they don't ship to the US :c

...animal noises?

This is super neat even though it's basically just running the main board plugged into peripherals - I already knew the main board was pretty small but it's still surprising seeing it sitting on a table.

Makes me wonder what you could do with a case the size of a wii (or even a mini wii). Plenty of space for cooling, a 2.5" SSD bay, and I'm sure you could fit lots of other goodies in it too.

I'm not sure how you figure that I'm "so angry", I thought my reply was pretty calm. All I'm pointing out is that valve treats their own employees very well, and that if you have an issue with how developers working for other companies are treated / paid, your beef lies with those companies.

Hell valve doesn't even charge their cut on steam key sales on other storefronts even though activating the key / downloading the game still uses steam infrastructure.

Then maybe you should complain about the game company that employs those developers, not valve...?
