Saw these in the Skymall catalog over the weekend while flying. Anyone have any experience with these things? Still seems like sci-fi to me. Apparently you can watch dvds and play World of Warcraft with these goggles.

ezVision Site.
Sir Ben Kingsley enjoying ezVision Virtual Glasses.

Vuzik site.

Here's a video: http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...46669832267754 Totally private, huh?

I don't think the resolution on these are very good. I don't think HUD or cinema glasses have ever had good resolutions.

Edit: And of course you will look like a total twat when wearing them.

I really intended for this to be in the Chewer Tech section. Oh well. Could the Mods be kind enough to move it?

You wear pants when you watch "movies"? Weird-O.

I have a feeling those things would fucking kill your eyes after prolonged use. Straight-up sear your retinas.

You should carry around a mouthpiece and yell, "hit me!"

So much for following the "You're too close to the TV!" advice from my Mom all those years.

I like the write-up:

The Rich Man’s View-Master

Have YOU ever wished you could immerse yourself in video from your iPod, only with lesser picture quality? Do YOU stay awake nights worrying about people looking over your shoulder and watching your iPod Video for free? Have YOU been striving to replicate the Geordi LaForge look? Then the Myvu Personal Media Viewer is for you! The world around you will recede into the distance when you strap on this New Wave-styled personal media accessory. Entomb your mind in the cold embrace of pure video – if it weren’t for the pixelated images and ghosty movement, you’d swear it was the real thing! And since three straight hours of disorientation and eye strain aren’t enough, the included Myvu power pack increases your iPod Video’s playback time to eight hours on a single charge! You’ll literally be begging for mercy! Whether you want convenient, immersive video playback or something bulky and ugly to wear around your head, the Myvu Fully Loaded Personal Media Viewer should be in your sights!

WARNING: Works only with 5th-generation iPod Video. Woot, Inc. and it subsidiaries cannot be held responsible if you wear this in public and get beaten up for looking like a tool. Not officially licensed for Star Trek convention usage. Do not use Myvu while driving, walking, running, flying a plane, captaining a boat, driving a train, riding a bicycle, or piloting a Segway. Boy, imagine somebody wearing one of these on a Segway. Talk about a total loser. Not for sale in stores anymore, we don’t think. No nutritional value. No cash value. No honest, hardworking American values. Not much value at all, come to think of it. Action figures sold separately.

Compatible with iPod 5th Generation Video Only
