    how exactly is this better, in any way, than Docs to Go which is only 10-15 bucks one time, or free if you are cool with having ads, or free if you are on Blackberry 10.

  17. I'm not sure how much patentable IP Oculus has, I just played with one yesterday, it's a 7" tablet screen pressed up against a view master and held against your head with a set of ski goggles and a wiimote.

    it's really cool that they have gotten VR tech to be so affordable, but the innovation isn't at all in what the rift does it's in making it out of commodity parts at consumer friendly prices

    We have the technology to create a network where you only pay for the device then become a node in a network: No monthly fees, bigger and more expensive node, faster your cross country connection
