Just wanted to share this quote from the New York Times article about the announcement. Interpret as you will.

"According to a person involved in the deal who was not allowed to speak publicly because he was not authorized by either company, Facebook eventually plans to redesign the Oculus hardware and rebrand it with a Facebook interface and logo."

I've seen this quote come up in many places, and each time, I can't help but wonder something that I guess is more of a developer concern.

When they use the word "interface" what do they mean? Are they changing the API to be the Facebook API?
