Yes, it definitely feels like they are selling out the last stock of the Hydra as fast as possible.

It smells like a new Hydra is coming. (wishful thinking perhaps)

I ordered mine during the 50% off sale, got an email saying my order had shipped on April 2nd (to Canada). I'm still waiting for it, I hope it didn't get lost in the mail. :cry:

I would contact Fedex. I orded mine on april 13th, with the 50% off deal. They said it would take 1-2 weeks to ship because of back order. Few days later I got an email with tracking info and it arrived on the 18th of April.

I am in Canada as well.

Been waiting for another deal in the price range and got mine. I don't know why I got the 2-day shipping. I think subconsciously, my brain thought it would make my rift come sooner. At least, I can hold the hydra and pretend ;)

I have been kicking myself for not getting one last time.

Thanks, OP. Ordered one this time.

It does feel suspicious. I was about to buy the Hydra from a cheap store here in Sweden a few weeks back, but their order system was broken and I forgot to check back. Now the Hydra is only available in two stores (on Prisjakt) and only in stock in one of them, and available for $175. Previously (10 days ago) plenty of stores had them and the price range was much lower.
Perhapssible Sixsense is working up a deal with Oculus for the next version? :woot I would love to have OVR-branded hydras, and they could have a single base unit for both the hand units and the HMD! Ok, enough speculation :P and it will obviously happen... for sure, of course, naturally.

Yeah me too, turns out DHL have had the damn thing for nearly 2 weeks and haven't been able to find my apartment or contact me in any way. I only realised when I contacted Razer and they gave me the tracking number. I should have it Friday.

Should I get a second Hydra, or wait for a newer technology?

For anyone like me, that played Portal 2 on console, bought a hydra, got the Portal 2 DLC for the hydra... but didn't actually have Portal 2 on steam... here's your chance to get it for $4.

Woop woop!

xhonzi, you're hurting my wallet. First the hydra, now all the game! Thanks though, I wanted to get a legit copy of HF2 for the mods and portal 2 for the hydra :)

Does anyone have a decent list of supported software for the Hydra?

I'm having a devil of a time trying to find one.
