I have ordered one and I can't wait to do some prototyping with this, occulus rift, and leap motion together.

I've preordered one as well and am also interested in this combined with the rift. Thinking of getting a Muse headband and curious how those three could work together. I feel very fortunate to be alive, with some extra money, in this day and age.

Call me picky but the language in the titles of these types of articles indicates to me that the authors don't really understand investing.

Thalmic didn't "get" $14.5mil as if they were chosen by some lottery or via some contest. They raised money by creating what, ostensibly, is or could be a viable business (whatever anyone's opinion is, the investors are betting that indeed it's a viable business), and are partnering with some investors to make it a reality.

I've seen a lot of titles like "gets" or "nabs" or "grabs"--that doesn't do justice to the process or the relationship in my mind.
