We need to consider how many Rifts are actually going to be sold at this price point. It&#x27;s surely many, but it&#x27;s not going to be millions of devices (this is a very expensive niche product being marketed to a relatively small slice of the market with even fewer supporting games to use it with).<p>With that in mind, 7k free units may very well indeed be sizable.<p>Regardless, they already pissed off most of their original backers during the sudden-no-forementioned sale to Facebook (which to this day remains a bizarre marriage). Sure, it may make some folks feel better, but it&#x27;s unlikely to tip the scales in any sizable manner (or effect the eventual outcome of bringing this product to market).
