What other people haven't quite touched on is that the in-built system certainly won't be powerful enough to run demanding VR games with good frame rates and resolution.
I also have my doubts about the 6GHz WiFi connection being enough for it, I hope there is also a wired option.
But it will be awesome to be able to do normal tasks like coding, writing, etc.. outside in the garden, as an example. I think for people that don't have a dedicated VR space, this could be awesome with 6GHz WiFi outside without needing base stations.
5 Ghz 866 Mbps wifi is 8x more than enough to comfortably run wireless streaming to a Quest 2 with 8-9ms lag, which is almost completely imperceptible when in play. 6 Ghz is more than enough.
Don't forget, it's kind of multiple WiFi connections.
I'm cautiously optimistic, from a sheer speed standpoint, it could be faster than most wired connections available over short ranges. It's not going to actually reach optimal speeds likely ever, but the few who have seen it in action seem optimistic about it too.
