>> "But then Magic Leap seems to have developed something even better."

Do you have some sort of inside information, i.e. having experienced the Magic Leap? Because I don't think any of the publicly available information can be used to make such a statement.

I think this is part of the "hype" mentioned in the original comment. All the press seems to imply Magic Leap is creating a lightweight wearable capable of allowing someone to focus on different objects in a scene and with retina-like resolution.

I think seeing articles that sensationalize the $500k investment or call it an "Oculus Killer" are what cause some of this hype. Although, I wouldn't say it's necessarily a bad thing because VR isn't consumer ready yet and all these articles are creating an early buzz around VR. So in that sense, it has gone pretty mainstream.
