Definitely -- being able to process 120+ frames of stereo image data, every second, with near-imperceptible latency, involves a decent chunk of processing power. That's why we recommend 2GHz at a minimum. The alternative would have been for us to sacrifice one of three things -- speed, accuracy, or low cost. |

Not to mention that it has no idea where your fingertips are during some gestures when it works at all. It's comfortable to use the LM for about four minutes, and then it's just a pain, combined with the enormous frustration of trying to get the damned thing to work right. Plus also something that really burned me personally: You guys really blew it with the deal with Best Buy. You turned pre-orders into "we ship them seven days before everybody can buy them at Best Buy". So I got my LM two days after I could have bought one at Best Buy. And supposedly pre-orders were ten dollars cheaper than buying one in the store (woo!), but guess what? Shipping costs completely nullified that.
I back a ton of hardware projects on KS and Indiegogo, and you know what term I use nowadays to denote a hardware project that's way behind schedule, and mismanaged, and barely works if and when you finally get it? I'll give you one guess.
