t_ski! I sees you!

another nice review! I always wondered if those things really worked
I was truly surprised to read that it was fairly comfortable as I always expected one would be extremely awkward

Geordi La Forge, FTW!!!! lol

Believe it or not, I expected something like this to be more expensive than it is. I'd like to check a pair of these out.

where are you going to use them tho? cant see many ppl sitting on the train/bus with these on so in effect there only going to be any good at home, and most ppl have decent tv's/monitors they watch there movies on anyway, wonder if they could be modded to game with tho? interesting idea

ex_reven · Aug 17, 2007, 10:24 AM

Let me know when they look like a pair of oakleys.

Id prefer the neck pain to be seen in public with these

You could use them on the train, bus, plane, taxi, kickin' back in your dorm or union hall. Maybe even watch pr0n without anybody knowing... lol

The visibility is not the best, but as long as you're not a total space cadet you can see through the view holes or around the glasses. But like I said in the review, you have to use your head when you wear them. Don't walk down the street with them on and get plowed by a bus or something...
