Yeah hololens was a bit of a marketing stunt by MS really, showing it off at E3 when it's not really a viable product for the end user for such a long time.

Just like IllumiRoom.. Microsoft showed it in 2013.. Everyone thought it was going to be part of the Xbox 720 (Xbox One).  and nothing.. then it kinda became RoomAlive.. Which will it does have a SDK.. still just a research project..  

Yeah exactly... the E3 show had quite a segment on hololens and it generated a lot of hype even though it could be 5 years out (and may never appear as a consumer device) and the fact that what they were showing wasnt accurate to what the player would see, still people fell for it. Great marketing though, i'll give em that.
