I can't really see this taking off. It's just far easier to watch telly when it's not on your head.

I remember something like this featured in a PC Gamer from about 10 years ago; I am pretty sure it flopped. Nobody wants to wear these goofy looking things on their heads.

It's a little like the video phone. A good idea in theory, but not something anyone would want to use because the old phone is just easier.

Thats perfectly fine. Think normal TV which is about 640x480, buit if you include interlacing, then it drops to 240 lines of resolution. S-VHS upped the anti to 400 lines of resolution, so this is way beyond what is needed for DVD's, etc. It won't do HD DVD however, but most people have no plans to go that route for quite some time.

You have no idea. It is going to cost you big time. She looks almost identical to my wife and if looks typically follow personality (the two go hand and hand), then that personality will want something truely expensive with only one way to keep the peace....

Then I must be blessed. All mine wants are point-and-click games from the early 90's :rotfl:

Not exactly a bank breaker to keep her happy!
