          I'm hoping the resolution update will help the nausea I feel every time I put one of these things on. They are talking about doing some smoothing in the software as well but that would mean I would need a stupidly beastly computer to do it.

            Smoothing in the headset software, if the computer was doing the smoothing, you'd just render higher.

                          There pricing doesn't seem so competitive to start. . .

                              It looks like https://github.com is having issues.

                                @dustinb3403 Good to know. I just had a pop up that made no sense whatsoever. After some digging it points to github. Thanks

                                  I dont' know about the rest of you, but the lack of a button has really annoyed me with the iPhone X and the Samsung Galaxy S8.

                                    The absolute best place for a fingerprint reader on the phone is on the back. Like it is on a lot of LG phones, and the Google Pixel 2XL I have. It is the natural place your finger rests when you pick it up a lot of times.

                                        I would be happy with two sensors in that case. I frequently touch the sensor on my phone while it's laying down on my desk. Picking it up would be a huge hassle.
