How can you see your keyboard if you are wearing those?

Ya but its a 150 inch(at 12 ft) 3D HD TV... You can't beat that for $800. I've read that the 3D is better than any movie theater 3D. Although I'd rather put my money towards a new graphics card and some more ram and just hope I get it as a gift some day :cool:

You can't but since I have everything I need hooked up to my warthog throttle I think I personally wouldn't find it a problem, but I am not going to spend £800 to find out if I can or not ;)... but think of the immersion, drool... :cool:

Yeh it would be very very cool...a VR glove and clickable cockpit and I'd probably never leave the house

I wish the hardware was ready for this tech, from what I've read on reviews it's not quite there, poor screen res is the only thing stopping me, if I had the extra cash I would pick them up though because how freakin cool would that be! Let us know, please:cool:

Yeah I'm the same. I would love to try them to see if they are as good as they're showing on the ads.
Can you give me a PM perhaps, after you've tried them and tell me if they're worth getting.
Would be much appreciated. :)
Cheers.

You stick the track clip in top and the glasses act just like a screen, there's a video of someone flying with Sony one and track ir.

I read something about them. Reviews say that the sony glasses shall be better. Both have same resolution but the wearing comfort and visibility quality of the sony are unmatched. When i get the next bonus from my company ill buy one too. I imagine this being quite impressive when the view changes while wearing the screen - combined with TrackIR. If you buy one please keep us updated on how it looks and feels.

Far more important as pure resolution is the apparent field of view and
35° is way too small.... :(

The Sony one has 45 degrees. That sounds OK. But surely trying one before buying would be mandatory for my at that price.
