Big Screen Viewing Effect For Mobile Phone Videos
Clarinase writes "Cellular phone subscribers can now view TV, movies, photos and broadband Internet content with a big screen viewing effect with Kopin CyberDisplay video eyewear from MicroOptical. This sleek eyewear allows users to privately view large-size video or pictures equivalent to a 12-inch screen as seen from three feet away, delivering crisp, full-color video with a 17-degree field of view. This eyewear is connected to a cell phone through a thin cable, and allows up to five hours of video with three AAA batteries. Since it accepts composite video input (NTSC or PAL), the eyewear can be plugged into other devices with composite video outputs such as portable DVD players."

Does anyone else think that 12inches is overkill to see the number youre dialing?
you are immediately qualified to be Chief Engineer of the USS Enterprise-D!
And I thought people using cell phones while driving was a menace before...
This sig has absolutely no significance and serves only to take up screen space and waste the time of the reader.
Now I have to worry about people having a cellphone stuck to their EYE when driving?
I can just see the legislators wetting themselves now.
Why does it not surprise me that the irc.goatse.cx troll wants thick cables?
I'll turn into a supernova and burn up everything. Well I'll turn into a black little hole and you'll turn into string.
I think this may result in the extinction of the human race. This looks so geeky that wearer will never get a date; male or female.
"We're opting for a total TV experience in a portable unit that weighs only thirty pounds." Theodore W. Stench-Higgins, president and founder of Crapola Technologies 2005 says. "This won't be like the Internet-connected brassiere that I released just before the Dot-Com bubble. I sure don't want to spend three years in prison for stock fraud again!"
The world's burning. Moped Jesus spotted on I50. Details at 11.
They look just like Geordi Laforge's glasses from Star Trek!
I will wear them when I am driving my Segway.
Look out chicks, here I come.
I am sure that wearing these on the bus/train/lunch room will get us all the ladies...
How long before we read about someone driving with these on?
I would like to see this type of thing for two functions (there were somewhat similar devices in the military)- 1) a picture in picture type display so that I can listen to my wife yell at me while there is a small display in an upper corner of my glasses showing sportscenter, or one of those E best bikini beaches shows or 2) a stop watch function in my field of view for running and doing intervals- it is a pain to keep screwing up my stride/ breaking form to look at my wrist watch.
Also: RE: cables- I would wait until it is wireless... Imagine if you mumble and start talking about the coax that kept bumping your chin this morning....
And All I Ask is a Tall Ship And a Star to Steer Her By
I dunno. I know a fair amount of girls who'd state that it was. Heck a handful of them only had room for about 5...
You probably sat closer than 3 feet to a monitor larger than 12 inches to type that comment.
mugging is up 500%, as many don't even see the attacker coming...

Heh. When I was at school, I used to listen to music while walking to/from class. I can't count the number of times I slung my heavy backpack full of math and science textbooks into the car, only to find that I'd accidentally wrapped my extremely resilient headphone cord around one of the straps. Headphone cable came out of the left side, phones wrapped around the back, but the mp3 player was on the right side, because I'm right-handed. Bag moves forward, pulls tough wire tight around neck...GAAK!
Have since purchased headphones with a breakaway plug in the middle.
