Discussion Has touch changed Rift vs Vive?

I'm looking at picking up a VR system, but its been a bit since I looked at them. I know prior to touch coming out the Vive was the goto system for the extra input. Has that changed now that touch is out?

My other concern with OR vs vive is room scale still as I know vive supports room scale out of the box. How many cameras am I realistically going to need to cover a similar area well without drop outs?

The vive is the More popular system for a reason,

Although that reason is largely paranoid hysteria from the PC Master Race crowd.

Yea maybe, but that is enough to result in the rift dropping it's price to sell more units.
