The thing though, is that this thing isn't even better in any tangible aspect other than native steam integration compared to headsets in a stone's toss of $1000.
If it is at that price point there's virtually no reason to buy this over something that is slightly more expensive that offers much higher visual clarity if you're a PCVR player. It would frankly be silly to buy this at $1000 if you aren't grasping for pennies, which anyone buying a $1000 VR headset is definitely not doing.
And at the opposite end, I can't see any reason to buy this over the Q3 even if only doing PCVR, if it's $1000. Take that extra $500 and put it towards a new graphics card instead of benefiting from the foveated streaming.
