In terms of ship dates for the first batch, I know just about as much as anyone else. They start shipping in March. Depending on where you are in the queue, you may get your unit sooner or later. Its already the middle of February here, so this is coming pretty soon actually.
Hope that helps.
I dont think they can ship on March, it probably get delay again
Because of china factory stop for 1 month for Chinese New Year
the holiday start from about 9/feb until march
while oculus team posted new information about the 40 units pilot run on 7/feb
So I dont think they produce enough units during that 2 days
