Eyeglasses as a monitor replacement?

[uberman]

We've all seen ads or pics of glasses that replace your monitor offerring the vision of a large screen HD TV. I just saw an ad for some on a Chinese website that reminded me of them.

Of course, we've seen a few major brands of them in computer magazines or on the web over the years promising the picture of a large screen HD TV. I'm actually considering them. I watch movies on my 160 Gig IPOD and yes the screen size is tough to handle.

Does anyone have any experience with these devices? Any tips? Any links?

Its a can of worms for vision problems since the focal length would be so short. Yes, there are ways to "trick" the eyes but long-term effects are unknown.

The HMZ-T1 will retail for $799, according to an announcement Sony Electronics made . . .
With two 1280 x 720 (0.7-inch diagonal) high-definition OLED displays, the headset can create a virtual 2D or 3D image for an audience of one. “Viewers enjoy an immersive experience which is similar to watching video on a large screen approximating 150 inches from 12 feet away,” the official description reads. “Sony has also adapted its original virtual surround signal processing technology to deliver powerful acoustical equivalent of a 5.1 channel surround-sound system.”
The headset comes with a separate control and includes a processing box which has an HDMI input and a pass-through output. Sony also said the device eliminates crosstalk (also known as ghosting) due to its advanced technology.
