    Not the best looking glasses by a long shot. Still, as long as I'm in the living room and no-one can see me, I don't care....I want!

    I would try them just to see what they do by myself (at the moment I am picturing Matrix kinda thing). Sorry to be pedantic but shouldn't that be £1500? I can sort of understand salespeople doing this kind of "rounding", but it's still a pet peeve of mine.

    Oblig - what are the specs?

    But really, what resolution? Is it colour overlay or just like a HUD? Frame rate? And what the hell are those things on each lens? Looks like it can shoot laser beams or something
