Update: HTC says the initial stock of the TPCAST accessory kit sold out in 18 minutes. A second batch may be available for pre-order next month.

Oculus may be closing out 2016 with a bang with the launch of its Touch controllers, but HTC is going to kick off 2017 with something special: a peripheral that makes its Vive headset wireless.

HTC today announced a tether-less VR upgrade kit for its SteamVR device, made by TPCAST, one of the first of 33 companies to join the Vive X Accelerator. A preview version of the kit was shown off today at Alibaba’s “11/11” global shopping festival in Shenzhen, China. This is not the wireless prototype device in the works at Quark VR.

As soon as I don’t have to order it from a website entirely in Chinese, I will be buying one of those.
