Wouldn't 'Area 201' be a more confidence inspiring name, if we're sticking to HTTP status codes?

Area 303: Just go ahead and buy HTC instead.
Let's hope it doesn't turn out to be a 417.
Or 418 :)

Edit: For reference, 418 is real. It is the "I am a teapot" error code, from an April fools RFC about teapots being internet connected, which I thought was at least marginally relevant to hardware hacking.

I love the fact that I work in an industry where "from an April fools joke" and "is a real thing" are not mutually exclusive.
It it were 419 and I started hearing from previously unknown dead relatives' barristers in VR-land, I'd know who to blame.
