> The fact that this can run standalone
Just make sure to wait for reviews on this front - it almost certainly can't run AAA games at the native resolution + fps. Likely it'll only be able to run lower req games on device.
Can it run the terminal and vscode comfortably is what I’m very interested about. Not having high hopes due to it being only 2160px, but… a man can dream

This. The combination of this being from Valve, and the fact it's highly likely to be an open Linux machine you can strap to your face, I'm looking to finally bite the bullet on a headset and the one thing I need to know is, can I use it for productivity, I'm used to working on 27"+ 4k monitors, _how much_ clarity am I going to sacrifice with this.
We just need a terminal with stereo rendered distance field font.
plug me into the matrix already so I can do without any screen at all

Sure, but there are already quite a few pretty nice looking games on Quest 3 running locally, so it can be done and should not be discounted as a gimmick.
It has pretty important benefits - lowest possible latency & being able to just pick the headset any play anywhere.
