I don't think I've made any mistakes. You asked what my expectation was and I told you. You have expert insider knowledge, so your expectations are more grounded. I understand that, but your question was not "why don't you believe what I believe".

If you want to change hoi polloi's expectation of VR you need better control of the narrative. At the moment nobody but VR devs and scant technology enthusiasts care about VR.

Also, I don't care about VR. This is my point. I'm active in the technology scene in my area, and so few people care about VR it's remarkable. I can't get out and meet more people who have units because those people don't exist.

Not having enough units to ship doesn't tell me there's "high demand", just that demand is too high to be covered. It's not like if there weren't enough iPhones. It's not surprising that small to medium manufacturing enterprises can't keep up with demand.

I'm glad you're doing well and that things are how you want them and expect them to be.
