Steam Frame… when?

The original release date was sometime around Q1 2026, obviously trump’s tariffs (illegal tax) and then AI consuming all of the RAM has messed with the timeline.
Oh and then international shipping will be more expensive due to increased fuel prices because of the Iran war.

My wallet fears the answer to this question.

Me too, but I’m pretty sure I’ll be getting one.
I haven’t had a VR headset since the original Oculus Rift. I’m still salty about them selling to Meta, and after I moved to Linux it turned into a paperweight anyway.
Since that point, no new headset had checked all the boxes for features, Linux support,and a vendor I could actually tolerate engaging with.
The Steam Frame is doubtless going to seem very expensive in comparison, but I see that as the price I have to pay to avoid an account on a platform I don’t want and all the associated data harvesting.
I will pay that price.
