I ordered one of these; I'll share my experience when it arrives.

While it's not the most advanced piece of kit out there, it seems pretty clear that it's great for the price.

There's actually already a thread about it elsewhere on this forum: http://mtbs3d.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=435

It probably makes more sense to talk about it in General Discussion than a tech support forum, although I'm sure I'll have plenty of tech support questions when I actually get one. ;)

This device is great for the price, lack of mouse and joystick emulation, missing "Edimentionnal like" hook driver cause Nvidia suxx hardly on drivers and it could work on Ati too, i already tell that to devellopers i hope they will heard or i think this device will die, for now at start the screen look small but after a while (2 weeks) it start to be bigger, i look a divx and i feel like i 'm in middle cinema theatre, but the first day i had it, i felt like looking at a 17 inch monitor at 50 centimeters, now it's ok, it's flicking a little sometimes depending colours, and device is a little hot after 2 hours, gaming into quake4 is nice, UT2004 too but better for simulators like fs10 or rfactor.

I was considering buying one, but their shipping prices to the netherlands are ridiculous...


EDIT:

I mailed them asking about shipping prices, and their arguments did make a lit of sense. I should say however that I still find them too high, although I don't expect shipping prices as low as a lot of other companies offer. That said, I was wondering if anyone else in the EU is thinking of buying a vr920, maybe we can order together with a few people and then split the shipping prices.
