Everything is 'upcoming' with this company.

Yes and I'd be loathe to spend any real time learning the SDK of a device that is so far mostly concept videos (as far as I can tell).

That won't make a whit of difference to them of course, it's not like I'm known in the gaming space anyway...

I'm pessimistically hopeful that they aren't just hype and don't spend so long trying to get it right that they're irrelevant by the time they launch.

They have a ton of very high-profile investors, it can't be purely hype. It's hard to believe Google would put half a billion dollars into a company without seeing something concrete and impressive.

And Bezos and Jobs invested in the Segway, I'm not saying that it's pure hype, just that all they've shown is hype.

To be fair, the segway did what was promised, but it turned out that it wasn't so useful in practice.

A plausible outcome for this technology as well.

Glass.

This is the future and is going to revolutionize everything. Would be worth it (lucrative) to start now!

I am thinking of abandoning my current, well paying, web dev career just to do these types of games and experiences.
