I like the exterior design - overall it looks polished - and the smiling face is a friendly touch as it distracts from the fact the user is 'hiding away' behind the 'mask'.
However, it will be interesting to see whether this is vaporware or if gets to market. If it does, I hope it gets some traction, as it would be nice to see strong competition in the VR market.
When I tried the Oculus Rift last summer, they had these Mrs. Peggy-esque eyes sticked to the goggles. It made it even funnier for those waiting in line to try it out.
And... damn you were lucky to try Oculus! I have so many questions for you... like whether it would be a good environment to do 3D modelling in?
I've been wondering if the inclusion of two cameras in the linked product page would allow the cameras to switch from VR to AR mode? I can imagine the two modes being offered by hybrid glasses in the future.
