Tracking issues would be a huge deal breaker for me, no way could I put up with the occasional glitches in tracking, not after having the Rift and the awesome tracking I get with it.

So I got the Odyssey+ WMR headset I ordered on the sale. It's kind of a mixed bag. The screen looks awesome. Practically no SDE (there is a slight pattern, but you really have to look). Everything looks detailed, even in the background. So that part is good. Headset is relatively comfortable, I'm a fan on PSVR style headsets.But the tracking is really wonky. I mean, it would have been okay if not for the glitches. Sometimes I would randomly get stuck in the floor (and it's not easy to recenter). Then one time the screen started spinning and I became stuck about 20 feet in the air upside-down, for no reason whatsoever. Plus I was getting loud audio static noise in the headphones intermittently.Pretty sad, because I did really want to like it. And this was supposed to be the premium model. I think I'll probably just sell it and wait to see what happens with Rift S.

You might be right about the extension cable. When I plug in direct to the computer it seems to be working. Played about 30 minutes and it was fine (one point it did briefly lose one of the hands, but it recovered).

Do you think you could use knuckles with the Odyssey, I saw it being used with the rift.
I presume that would be steam only games.

I guess that would depend on the pricing of a knuckles lighthouse bundle then.
See on ebay a few Vive for spares going cheap. If it had broken headset but controllers and V1 lighthouses could be a cheap option.
