"" The device doesn't appear too geeky either, looking like a cool set of futuristic shades that even the X-Men's Scott Summers (Cyclops) might appreciate.""

I guess your definition of geeky and mine are different...

Aren't these of the variety that give you massive headaches after about an hour of use?

...and how do your eyes feel after using this? I bet they'd hurt like a mofo. How big are the projections inside the glasses? 1" equivalent? I think this would be a good way to go blind.

4:3 & 320 x 240

Why even bother releasing this junk?

Even iPhones, Droids and many other phones are higher resolution then this and in a Wide creen format.

this type of devices have been available for a while... for those who fly on a regular basis, you could not miss these in the SkyMall magazines all over the planes.
the natural focal length of the eye lens is something around 20 cm, so anything that is projected to appear farther that that does not require accommodation. The eye lens is not strained anymore.
I guess these devices use divergent lenses to form the virtual image at a distance greater than that.
I'm waiting for the 3D application of these, would be kinda cool to watch a movie from a memory card on your glasses in 3D. Of course, the tech is not there yet, but in time...

That new Wide Creen format is the kicker. It's what plants crave. That and the fact that the creen is only 1" wide, with that high of resolution.

I dare YOU NegativeX, to come up with a WideCreen 1920x1080 resolution 1" creen.

Get to it you bastard.

Why hasn't Nvidia done this already??? Could you imagine having a compass/gyro attached to it? That would be AWESOME in a video game. Totally possible, totally feasible. It could DEFINITELY be done.
