I checked into this and I have declared it at least 1,037 times cooler than the Apple Watch. The videos I saw were unbelievable. I’ll need at least 2-3 sets in my house for Minecraft alone. I wonder if it will it also work with Solidworks? I can definitely see this replacing my iPad.
As for the Verge statement “You’re going to look strange wearing and using it”. I say that within a few years, the saying will go that folks will “look strange without it” (Brave New World?)
It's definitely going to find some useful applications, and so far it hasn't generated any Chris Kyle scale lengths of smiley-faced cap lock spam.
