    So, in other words, the AVP is apparently popular enough that journalists write articles if some end up getting returned. I guess that’s quite impressive.

    I’m really enjoying mine so far for a few specific use cases, like watching movies while lying down in bed, and as a giant, private display to surf the web and such while on trains and flights. I think it shows a lot of promise but I can’t blame anyone for not finding $4,000 of value in it today. I bet the third or fourth generation is going to kick ass, though.

    Yeah, VR/AR is really amazing and has some pretty cool future applications. I’m glad Apple is investing in that future, too. But I kinda hope they don’t sink it with the potential this has to be a high profile failure because they went for a market segment that’s not going to see the benefits quite yet. Especially at the price point.
