For something this expensive, gen 4 is the minimum entry point for me. Even the iPhone and apple watch didn't start getting "great" until gen 4. There are many things to work out with the device and there needs to be a functioning support market to justify the cost... but honestly, until I see a great use case for the headset there's not a lot of interest for me at all. I have a Quest 2 that's been gathering dust for 2.5 years now. There just isn't enough to justify the hassle of using it.
> Using it for virtual displays with a physical keyboard/trackpad for productivity use cases on a Mac looks pretty cool.
I currently have 3 monitors: my 16" MBP, a 24" samsung and a 27"samsung... even the combined prices for these devices do not equal the cost of the headset and I don't have to deal with the "experience" of a headset. Hell, I only approach the cost of the headset when I add in the prices of my mouse, keyboard and desk.
