How Cool Would Zune be with these?

ACE · 01-08-2008, 04:12 AM

MyVu offers a line of Personal Media Viewers in the form of glasses that hook up to an external video source (such as a Zune) to provide the illusion of watching the content on a large screen from several feet away. Generally speaking, this means less eye-strain than you would get from viewing for long periods on a 3-inch screen.

The latest PMV to join MyVu's lineup is the Crystal Edition, an orange-lensed set that is certainly sweeter-looking than its predecessors. The Crystal also a 35 percent increase in the field of view over existing PMV models, which allows for better quality and a more immersive viewing experience. Another difference is the transparent lenses, which opens the glasses up to other applications...after all, who wouldn't want to sport these beauts as their daily shades? Keep an eye out for the Crystal in spring of 2008.

lpxxfaintxx · 01-08-2008, 08:03 AM

Pretty cool, but I wouldn't wear one of those in the public!

Volpe Sinatra · 01-08-2008, 11:32 AM

That's pretty cool looking, but what about we damn near blind people? Could they be worn over prescription glasses?

saab900 · 01-08-2008, 12:09 PM

Any idea on the price? Probably 600 plus.

WOW! I wish those would make it to the retailers because I have had my eye on things like those, but I would not want to invest that much money with out testing the out.

ACE · 01-08-2008, 01:42 PM

I'm not really saying for MS to include this with the device, I was just saying they'd be cool to use with the Zune.

I think their a really great idea if you fly a lot, or are a passenger in cars, trains, or buses often and don't want the over-the-shoulder viewers...

Jzune · 01-08-2008, 01:54 PM

The Zune would be cool with those but not if your wearing it.

Trogdor · 01-08-2008, 02:31 PM

I have accually played a videogame with these on before
It was at the Iowa State fair and the game was DDR and the cable went from the xbox it was connected to so it didn't work very well.
Also if you have poor vision and wear glasses like i do these dont work so well

Gregory · 01-08-2008, 02:55 PM

Maybe you could watch at pr0n without anyone knowing.

CameleonMK · 01-08-2008, 02:58 PM

Kazune · 01-28-2008, 03:56 PM

CameleonMK · 01-28-2008, 04:04 PM

Kazune · 01-28-2008, 04:12 PM

i can hear the olduh folks now

"back in my day, tvs were boxes not... glasses!"

unless they added cyclops blaster vision.. but that's something else entirely

HardQuor · 01-28-2008, 04:21 PM

They look like they'd give me a headache =/
do they beam light directly into your eyes or do they project onto the lenses? either way looks like a migraine waiting to happen.

Trogdor · 01-28-2008, 04:27 PM

After using these I most definetly wouldnt buy them.
Mainly because of the headphones and poor sound quality
