At the price they're selling the Vive Pro for, this is something that should have been built in.

Sweet. My TPLink died a couple of months ago, and was never that great, so I went back to wired. Time to go wireless again, and maybe get a Vive Pro.

> That’s important because HTC’s primary market competitor, TPCast, doesn't support the microphone over wireless.

It actually does, just not out of the box. If you flash the onboard SD card with OpenTPCast (a pretty easy process) you get a lot of the features that TPCast by itself doesn't support, including the microphone.
