Just as excitement over the Oculus Rift is buzzing right before E3, it looks like the HTC Vive headsets are being shipped out to developers right now.
However Steam notes that only "major movie studios, triple A developers, to small indie teams working on their first title" will get the Vive while shipping will continue throughout the year to more devs.
