I ended up on the wait list from the lottery, but I received an email at 2am this morning that I’m now in the reservation queue. My Steam account also says the same. There may be hope for waitlisters after all!

One of my friends got one pretty early and used it in a voice chat with us. After about 5 minutes the microphone in discord broke and sounded like he was talking through a tin can telephone. Other than that, I think he enjoys it! He did mention that the battery life is only around 2 hours, which seems awfully low to me.
Good luck with your headset! I’m a little jealous of the foviated rendering…
If I stream I can get ~2 hours on it. ~1.5hrs if I’m playing native. It charges very quickly through.
If I ever get to the point where I want to play more than 2 hours in a row, which doesn’t happen with a family and responsibilities, it’d be pretty easy to get a decent battery pack in the back pocket/beltpack and keep going comfortably.
Plugging it in while steated is super comfortable and you can play continuously on it that way.
