We did a little experiment here, which will make sense few weeks later. @OzOnE2k10 might knew instantly, others will see it in the campaign.
Exciting stuff.
@rozsnyo - what are your thoughts on the announcement of the DK2?
I'm tempted to pre-order one, but I can't help thinking it's still not perfected because the positional tracking apparently won't work too well if you turn around 180-degrees?
As far as I can tell, the DK2 is still 1080p, but uses a 75Hz OLED panel with backlight strobing.
I still want to get a RiftUP kit of course, but it's a shame about the timing of the Oculus announcement.
Then again, the RiftUp kit will no doubt be available a LOT sooner than the DK2.
Judging by the DK1 deliveries, I expect the DK2 will still take many weeks to start shipping.
btw, don't worry about the EDID stuff, guys.
It's easy enough to spoof it so all the software will work OK.
The whole tracker has also been cloned by various people, so given the plastic housing and lenses, we could basically make our own Rift compatible HMD now.

Those taobao links are great, but one of them says "Octopus Rift". lol
