B&H Photo & Video [www.bhphotovideo.com] will have them. They should also have some pivoting heads to position & angle the Lighthouse basestations.

Yes, the one listed below is upto 8' tall. Also I wouldn't rush out and order either just yet until we confirm the thread and pitch for the mounting. I'm pretty sure they use the standard threading for lighting, but I would double check the materials on the mounting before ordering something. If I recall correctly it's in the developer setup PDF for the Vive Pre which you should be able to find online. They use 1/4" - 20 threading.

Here is a Air Cushioned Light Stand [www.bhphotovideo.com]

Here is a Tilting Head [www.bhphotovideo.com]

TribalInstincts who has the Vive Pre as can be seen in the video below

He confirmed On reddit/r/Vive that is uses 1/4" - 20 threading, so the above links for the stands and heads should be good to go.

For what it's worth the commercial version unboxings I've seen show that they include a wall mount kit.
