It works for me, I can download and install apps from my phone, they automatically appear on my GO as long as it's in standby mode.

Another suggestion (or feature I don't know how to use) I am at work trying to buy apps from my rift (which is at home charging on a shelf). It's saying I need to make a PIN. In the account settings I only see pin options for pairing the device. IT would be cool if I can just buy apps on my phone and it would auto download them for me. It's connected to my wifi right now so I don't see why it can't do this. The rift at home is linked to my account on my phone. You can do this on google play 😛

I do love that you called your GO a Rift, btw.

Ok, great, I've just ordered it from Oculus website direct, from USA to UK. Hope it comes quick! 🙂
When I originally saw this been developed and then released I was like, why are they making this? Who is it for? And I wasn't going to bother, but then after reading all the good reviews on the optics, resolution, FOV, god rays etc, and everybody saying how good it is to watch Netflix, I thought that sounds good, I can watch Netflix on holiday and in bed with this and also be good to show this to all my family and friends. So I decided to buy it tonight, I went for 64gb version just in case and paid £250.
One last question, so you said this uses WIFI, does that also mean we can use WIFI hotspotting from our phones? I'm going to Norway/Oslo in July for a 1 week holiday and the hotel says it has WIFI but my normal experience with hotel WIFI isn't very good so if I can hotspot from my phone that would be awesome.
Thanks for answering my questions.
