This is actually a good thing after reading about all the upgraded features of it. I wonder what it really feels like to use. How many of us would get motion sickness or not, is also something I'm wondering.

If it gets big support for the major FPS makers out there, or FPRPG makers this would be amazing, imagine Skyrim with this thing or Battlefield 3

i say raceing games, as most people can imagine that better than a fps...

that said, i hope that some desktop software comes out that will let us emulate 6 or so monitor setup with this.

Lol, did you really mean to emulate a 6 monitor setup with 1280x800 resolution?
Like 6 426*400 in a 3*2 array? I assume that can be done, for whatever reason...

this thing has dead tracking. that means that depending on where you are looking, it shows you a monitor.

imagine it, 6 monitors of real estate depending on where you are looking.

granted they are looking into 720p per eye on a final release for public if not 1080p but this dev preview but i can see a great use for this in the future.

even if it was 500$, it would replace a 3-6 monitor setup no matter what the use of the setup was.
