My guess is a pre-built PC or AR device. Latter is more unlikely since it would substantially overlap with their Index market.

Does anybody have an idea what this could be?

It would be sick if it were VR glasses that could be stand alone, but also be able to tether to a PC for more horse power when needed. This way we wouldn’t be limited to shitty graphics often associated with today’s VR titles.

Consolized gaming PC running SteamOS, perhaps? With how outrageous component prices are these days it would make sense.

new anticheat measure where they frame you for an appropriate crime that will put you in prison for the time period of the effective ban.

I’m guessing this would be Valve Fremont? At least, the name would make sense for what we know about Fremont. From what we can tell, it’s a Steam Machine-like PC, designed for a console-like experience. Runs a Hawk Point APU with its iGPU stripped out, paired with an RX 7600 GPU, iirc

As others have said, we have two upcoming steam hardware devices: VR headset and a new Steam Machine. This is probably one of the two.
My personal guess is it’s the new Steam Machine.

Streaming hardware? Presumably like Geforce Now, only the publishers can’t say no.

I’m going to go against the grain and say it’s their VR hardware they’ve been sitting on for years now.
Steam Frame, and then calling glasses “frames” is common. Either case it seems like a bad name, but I’d reckon it’s their VR/AR device.
