$999 + $149 (or just $89 for DP cable) - - required for DP?, I can't actually tell which accessory is required.

Looking forward to the yt reviews.

 

I have come to the conclusion that you can not just buy the cable, you need the whole streaming kit

any DP cable should work? Official accessories are usually overpriced

I find it unusual there aren't already in-depth reviews available from VR-focused YouTube channels.   I expected multiple reviews on Release Day, and it's already several days past and I haven't seen anything yet.    I don't want to jump to conclusions, but I see this as a bad sign.

There is one post on msfs forum. He pre-ordered it on a whim, after brief testing.. not much clarity wise not that better than HP G2. He ended up returned it.

good but not a glowing review

Indepth, but generally unfavorable review here:

Still waiting to see something from other reviewers' (MRTV, VRFightSimGuy, etc) but it doesn't look good so far.
