This doesn't appeal to me at all. I need some artifact in my hand that I'm interacting with. A disembodied page floating in my field of view doesn't seem pleasant. I'd also worry about eye strain. The Quest 2 can really wear you out after a few hours, I wonder if this would be similar?

I'd be worried about face fatigue in general. Those headsets can really hurt if you don't have the perfect shaped nose for them

Thankfully it's e-ink so the eye strain should be a lot less than something with an LCD screen. As for the artifact, I definitely agree with you.
