Leap Motion miscalculates shipping, won't let people use it until 22nd
It arrived in the mail this morning, and I was very excited to try it after having waited for about a year since ordering it. There was no driver CD inside, but there was a card that directed me to the setup page on their web site. But... it's just a launch page until the 22nd. Now, three days is not a long time to wait, but it seems wrong that having bought a product from a company, they should dictate to me that I'm not allowed to use it until the date they want to make a big, splashy entrance on. I called them, and they said they had miscalculated the shipping, and the devices had arrived sooner than they expected. They still wouldn't make the driver software available yet, though.

Perhaps the driver is not ready?
Developers have been using the thing for months.
Yeah. I've had a developer kit for a few months and it's worked fine. However, they have not released the release SDK to developers yet.
Its more about the launch of their airspace app store.
