Aren't they really paying for a dev license and support? Can they develop for the apple vision without the device?

Nevermind. The article suggests the strap is a development "accelerator". :/

Yep thats right, you can totally do photoshopping or coding or work on spreadsheets with this device, it totally isnt an extremely overpriced demo of what could maybe someday kind of almost make sense for anything beyond extremely casual computer usage.
