The future looks bright. I guess q4/2014 will be the time these gadgets will hit the gaming market ... hard.

I was under the impression that the HD version of OR were due Q4 this year or perhaps Q1 14 thanks to the new 16 m$ input but I am perhaps wrong Not the first time in that case

Wow imagine using this with the oculus rift like in the video link. Virtual penis enlargements, cha-ching! time for a startup.

First reviews for the Leap Motion don't sound good. Rather negative.

It''s a gimmick. It also does not really work well with general controls (eg. webbrowsing) and the apps are too expesinve and offer no demo option to just give them a try.

Overall I am not too excited. It has potential, but also severe limitations.
