   As interesting as this gadget is, I can only surmise that will pass like most fads.That price will make the everyday person think twice before shelling out that kind of cash.

   That price tag is just silly. Only the most hardcore (and rich) fashionistas would consider buying this earphones. And I don't consider walking around with a small screen in front of my eye hip.

   However expensive it may seem, it does looks cool, somewhat like the thingy Snake wears in MGS 4.(assuming u've seen the posters for it)

   Honestly, I can't see myself walking past some tool sporting that headset, and NOT slapping him up the backside of his head.

   No wonder with such kind of gadgets we are slowly but surely moving to the world depicted in movies like "Star Wars"

   The question is, will anyone really buy a 600$ headset? Except maybe some movie stars who will only wear it in a movie premiere walking on a red carpet.But this is a good start. Eventually, this kind of gadget will be much more affordable, and people will find it acceptable to wear it in public, instead of idiotic. It just isn't so right now.

Does that mean they're illiterate cos they can't write? Just type? ANyway, this is great. I don't care how much teh price is but as long as we have it, i'm sure slowly slowly the price tag will drop. Perhaps by 2008.

    i think its cool. i wouldnt mind having one if i was super rich. and SKYWALKER my grandparents got me that mp3 for christmas. it was well worth getting just one present.anyways eventually the price of those things will go down and there will be even cooler ones than that and plus thats probably really bad for ur eye but it does say "Supposedly" its like watching a 105" or 8ft TV from 12FT away. did any of u guys see this?[url]http://www.startsomethingpc.com/ViewEntry.aspx?Ent

    So that's where we are headed in the next couple of years ? Wearing video headsets like weird people from Starwars ? Pff...Why anyone would waste his time to produce such a product ? It's completely useless. you can buy 2 iPods and 3 Nanos in 600$, and honestly, if I want to see movies in 105" screen (and bigger), I go to the cinema.

    yea but bart u cant bring that cinema movie along with u in the car. thats the hole point of this headset. to watch ur PORTABLE movies on a screen that looks bigger than the 2.5 inch screen. i think the one and only bad thing about it is that u only get to watch it outta one eye. like i said before if i was rich id buy one even if it is only one eye
