HTC RE Vive VR Headsets Delayed

Those surprised that the HTC (RE) Vive VR headset being made in partnership with Valve was announced for release this year will be less surprised to learn that HTC has now revealed the VR headsets will not be widely available until 2016 (thanks VG247). The Verge has word from a press release stating: "HTC will offer the first commercial Vive units via a limited quantity of community and developer systems" later this year, "with larger quantities shipping in calendar Q1 2016." This more closely aligns their release with competing units from Oculus Rift and Sony Project Morpheus, which are also both due next year. No reason for the setback is provided.

Is any of Valves hardware gonna come out on time? It was seeming way too quick for it to hit this year, but they paraded a very aggressive date. 2016 doesn't mean they are bullish that it is a small delay.

Boo.
