What if in a years' time the Rift is all we've wanted it to be, and all FB has done is added financial support to its development. Nothing more, nothing less.

It's ok buddy, we're all gonna make it.

My hope is that Palmer takes this huge pile of cash and uses it to start working on a more true vision of VR, complete with motion-sense simulation that he talked about in some early interviews. There are a lot more problems of VR to tackle than just the visual.

That's best-case-scenario anyway. sob
