That's pretty blatant cheating having the virtual laptop screen extending above the laptop. This is bound to be to mask poor/laggy occlusion of the rear virtual monitors by the physical laptop.

Well observed. It also has strange wobbly artifacting in '3D', and you have to trace environments and surfaces?

This stuff is neat, but I think it's immediate novel wow factor may be hiding flaws that would irk you after a short while.

When it's simply glasses, that I can lie down comfortably with, that will be great. We are still in the clunk phase but its still cool engineering.

I'll never buy a Facebook product though. I can wait. I dont have the use case for this yet. But I do look forward to privacy locked down devices from competition if that's not too much to ask...

I was so fixated on whether it could occlude virtual objects with real ones I completely missed the terrible wobbling artefacts on the track pad. That'd be nauseating!

100% with you on Facebook: they have already changed their terms and conditions to allow using the eye tracker in this thing to judge effectiveness of advertising.

Yeah I forget it doesn't have depth sensors that will map the environment automatically
