Hello everyone.
The Mixed Reality Forums here are no longer being used or maintained.
There are a few other places we would like to direct you to for support, both from Microsoft and from the community.
The first way we want to connect with you is our mixed reality developer program, which you can sign up for at https://aka.ms/IWantMR.
For technical questions, please use Stack Overflow, and tag your questions using either hololens or windows-mixed-reality.
If you want to join in discussions, please do so in the HoloDevelopers Slack, which you can join by going to https://aka.ms/holodevelopers, or in our Microsoft Tech Communities forums at https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/mixed-reality/ct-p/MicrosoftMixedReality.
And always feel free to hit us up on Twitter @MxdRealityDev.

After you apply there will be a small waiting period while you are assigned to a "purchase wave". I'd assume that most users who are signing up now are getting assigned to wave 4, maybe even a wave 5 depending on the amount. Microsoft has just started shipping HoloLens devices for the Wave 1 folks today and they've stated that there will be a 2-3 month separation between waves. You will not be able to actually purchase the HoloLens until your assigned wave is closer to its shipping date. Hope that helps!
