Yeah! That's what Google thought when they invented google glass! VR will go the same way! Don't compare apples to oranges!

google glass is augmented reality. samsung gear is a VR toy. if you don't know of the crescent bay on its way next year, do yourself the favor of geeking out on it. the VR we've always imagined is right around the corner, and pale imitations and cheap alternatives to real VR is no way to gauge the relevance or viability of an industry you haven't experienced yet.

If you could get hold of 5 Apple pencils and fasten them into the fingers of a glove - essentially lengening your own fingers...well then you have a pretty cool and unusual way of controlling some audio apps - and it would look pretty bizzare - but in a compellingly appealing way. And as everyone knows, bizzare in the music world helps you stand out from the crowd (Lady Gaga et al).
