I know I've been posting a lot of VR stuff lately, but this is seriously amazing.  Developers are using VR HMDs to create virtual desktops, turning your PC's desktop into a 3D theater and integrating with 3D video and images.  I am totally psyched to try this out!



On a side note, shipping notices have started going out for the earliest Rift shipments (to Kickstarter backers).  My Rift is supposed to shift sometime in April, so I've got another 1-5 weeks to go.

(...although the Vive is definitely looking sexy.)

The first Rifts are shipping this morning, scheduled for delivery on Monday 03/28.  Please, please, please let them live up to the hype!

No idea when mine will arrive (sometime in April, supposedly), but I'm a little worried about comfort.  I had a chance to try Briney's Rift DK2 about a year ago and it was fine for a short burst, but I have no idea what the CV1 will be like after extended play.  Most of the game journalists have used both the Rift and the Vive for ~30 minute stretches without complaint, but that doesn't really compare to a marathon gaming session.
