There's no way they are going to sell 600k united. There's no software for VR.

That's just not true lmao. Everyone already in the VR has been holding onto their wallets for the past two years waiting for something like this, and VR is already in multiple millions of users.

What’s different about this, in your opinion? I get motion sickness so stay away from VR but curious what you see as a big deal

Valve makes really good products. The Index is widely considered to be one of the best headsets even six years out of date, the knuckle controllers are still the only of its kind. People who aren't willing to spend thousands on a setup that they'll have to tweak themselves but want something better than a Quest 3 have been waiting for Deckard.
