I'm kind of in the same boat, although in time I've gradually become less negative about it. I, too, was wanting something that felt like a native peripheral but always found that it is a module you more or less have to hack a solution onto. I was also a bit disappointed as I bought it during the leap year promo (nice job, Leap Motion, nice job) mostly for the thought that the little block throwing demo was usable for me. Apparently, VR only. And that's what I found: it is meant only for the AR/VR space even though they positioned it for other spaces (at least, after Windows 8 died. They did try to demo start menu navigation via gesture). That being said, I think the possibilities are there and I'd give strong consideration to it. I'd rather see them partner up with the Valves/HTCs/Googles/Microsofts of the world as getting into a common framework is going to be pretty important for their tech to really catch on.
