Personally I see the free-track options as something for the handyman electronics hobbyist to play with, a bit like some guys build their own rudder pedals and simpit joysticks. I repair electrical equipment and computers for a living, so I am not that inclined to pull out a soldering iron at home and I happily went out and bought trackir

Regardless of how you get access to head tracking, once you get it working properly and have had a few weeks to get the hang of it, you never look back.
