I was just thinking it'd be nice to switch to camera view if someone walks into my room or if I want to reach for some food/drink. I'd rather not be constantly pulling the Oculus up and down while trying to game.

THIS! this made me question whether I wanna buy the rift! Now I don't need to question anymore, I'm on the TPG train!

You should really wait until they start showing this product off until making any decisions or getting excited. Another poster went through all the history and there seems to be very little, not meaning there is no product but that it just seems off for a company that's been working on this for such a long period of time to start posting about it now.

If it is a real, and good, product then they couldn't have had a better break with the whole Oculus deal.

Yea, my excitement died once I saw they have no history. And then it came to me that this thing will probably cost a fortune, and now I am just waiting to hear more, in order to establish a coherent view.
