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!

Good to know. Thanks!
I’m a waitlister so it’ll be a while for me. I hope you enjoy it!

Have you tried streaming over WiFi without the dongle?
24 daysI’m also on the waitlist :(
On the Frame itself, yes. On the PC side it’s encoding and sending an audio/video stream and receiving inputs from the VR device over a network. They have implementations for other devices, so it stands to reason that they’d have an implementation for their own device. Maybe there are some kinks to work out (nvidia hardware, Wayland implementation, etc. ), but I’m sceptical that it “doesn’t work”. Especially since game journalism is full of hyperbole.
Then again, maybe I’ll have an expensive paper weight on my desk for a while, but hopefully not! 😆
I find that hard to believe. I’ve been able to stream just fine from Steam to a Quest 2 for months. It’s worked for years if you include using ALVR.
That’s great to hear! Can’t wait to get mine 😁
