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.

Can a second unit be purchased after the 10-day period in the invitation closes?
Is it possible to order a 2nd unit after the 10-day window in the invitation closes? I ordered one unit for development and may need a dedicated 2nd unit for demos, but would rather not order this until it's actually needed (at least 2-3 months from now as the initial app is being developed).

Hello,
Within the 10 day window you can indeed choose to purchase one device and come back for the second.
If you wish to purchase a second device (you are limited to 2) after that initial 10-day window, then you would need to contact hlstorehelp@microsoft.com who can restore your access temporarily to your private store.
Thank you

According to the FAQ here for purchases: https://www.microsoft.com/microsoft-hololens/en-us/development-edition#faq
Both HoloLens units must be purchased within the 10 day period.
Thanks, I checked those links before. The FAQ doesn't specifically address what happens if, after the 10-day period, a developer wants to buy a additional units (less than 50, of course).
I'm sure there must be other developers who only bought single units to develop an idea and who may need additional units afterwards for demo purposes. It would be helpful if the HoloLens team gives us an official position on this.
