The cosmos is an objectively "good" headset and doesn't leave vive trackers in the dust with an addon, which is really nice, and it'll also be portable in many ways, which is also good. 

It's overpriced though, and they will have to drop to $699 for the kit WITH lighthouse if they want to stay competitive. It's much cheaper than vive or vive pro + das with far better controllers, at least, but there's no reason to get it and the lighthouse tracking addon over a index, at all.

I'll possibly get one to replace my ailing vive in time, once the price drops to 500$ or below, which I'm sure it will, especially if they're available in more places before the index is. 

However, if index is available everywhere, you better believe htc is fucked, because nobody would buy this over a vive pro eye or index.
