Google Cardboard Is VR's Gateway Drug | WIRED

For a different take on the near-term mainstream potential of VR, see VR Goggles are Years Away from Broad Consumer Adoption (Techpinions)

"There’s no reason not to try Cardboard now. It’s cheap, it’s easy, it works with your phone. It’s still a million miles away from the best VR demos out there; Oculus, HTC’s Vive, and Project Morpheus all blow Cardboard out of the water—which they should, because they’re not made of cardboard. But Cardboard more than accomplishes what it’s supposed to: It transports you. Download the roller coaster app, and you’re flying through the air. Download the Paul McCartney app, and suddenly you’re perched on the edge of his piano."
