It's a brutal time to be releasing hardware like this.

GPU prices, RAM, SSDs, all inflated through the roof.

This should have been the price of a PS5 Pro, with the performance of a PS5 and it's not even that.

I still want the Frame, but only because my OG Rift died a couple of months back. I really don't want to have to go crawling back to Meta for a Quest 3 when I see the price of the Frame, but I'm not optimistic. They really need a reduced spec Frame that just does the streaming portion. With RAM and GPU prices as they are, that would at least make some sense.
