Lowered prices before I move over to ebay.

Appreciate the head's up. Will handle with kid's gloves when I remove the interface. I'd be interested to hear how customer support answers you. This will be my first Meta device and my first dealing with Meta, and I do wonder how supporting their customer support is.

Guess we're in the category of great minds think alike. I was, indeed, going to go with the 128GB, but after XenIneX mentioned a few posts above about a 30GB OS, I got really antsy thinking about how quickly storage will fill up and having to juggle titles around. I went with the 512. Ordered...

Thanks all for your comments. Placed my order today. Looks like it won't ship until the end of the month, but that will give me enough time to build up anticipation. I've got a post in the FS forum for my Index, if anyone is interested.

You've sold me for sure. Previously, once I had the Index in hand...and installed various aftermarket components to make it as comfortable as possible...I just settled down with it and stopped following VR products and news. In fact, I still might have stuck with my Index but for the fact that...

SOLD ON EBAY I am the original—and only—owner of this Valve Index. Other than for the right Knuckles controller, it works perfectly. The right controller needs a battery; this is not user changeable, at least not for the average person (although there are youtube vids on how to do this). Being...

Super explanations. You've helped clarify some of my fuzzy perceptions; many thanks. The more I hear of the Quest 3, the more I want it. Hopefully, parting out and selling my Index--minus the bad right controller--will help to fund it. It sounds like you have a Metaquest, so can I ask of the...

Original Index owner. The right controller is no longer usable, and I'm not ready/willing/able to replace the battery. The question is whether to buy a new set of controllers or upgrade to a newer technology wireless device. The pancake lenses on the Quest 3 have really intrigued me--along with...

Nova Air C 7.8" color e-ink reader/tablet. Excellent condition; rarely used. Comes with the original silver protective cover as well as an additional cover I purchased separately ($50 value). Comes with pen and extra nibs. Paypal $325 shipped.

You know, the surge protector advice is an excellent suggestion. I wouldn't have thought of it. Will go to Amazon right now and order one. For anyone interested, I wrote up a treatise of my 4 laptop picks for him to consider--two with a discrete video card and two without--and he felt most...

I gotta say I love the Surface devices. I own two Surface Pros and a Surface Go myself. I do plan on presenting the Surface Laptop as an option to him (I don't like the feel of the detachable Pro keyboards myself, and I am a very fast touch typist, but the laptop keyboards are decent; and I...

He'll be majoring in biology/science. From what I'm hearing, I'm thinking I should aim more toward this laptop being a combination entertainment lifeline and mini-workstation. So with that in mind, I'm thinking I'll present him with a few options but will suggest my overall pick as the XPS 15...

He'll be in a dorm, sharing a tiny room, but he will have a small desk. Setting up an external monitor and possibly external GPU is really not an option at this stage of the game. So just really looking to get him a relatively reliable laptop with everything he needs and nothing he doesn't. Do...
