Would You Wear Video Glasses?

Roland Piquepaille writes "According to EE Times, an Israeli company has developed a personal video display device that looks like a simple pair of glasses. You can use these glasses with various sources, such as a portable media player or your cell phone. This technology promises to eliminate the dizziness phenomenon usually associated with this kind of display. And with these glasses weighing only about 40 grams, you'll feel that you're viewing a 40-inch screen from a distance of 7 feet." Video screens embedded into eyewear isn't that new, but the footprint of these is smaller than what I've seen before, making them cooler to wear on the subway.

Re:I will only do it until I need glasses...

"Shikata ga nai" or "Shi kata ga nai" (no rules about spacing) or "shikata nai" (excluding the particle is common) means something like "nothing can be done", "it can't be helped" or "oh well" in Japanese. "Shi gata ga nai" could be interpreted as... hm... "there is no C blood type", which would be true. I'm not an expert, so I figured the meaning might be above me, but puns in Japanese are often difficult to understand without the kanji.
