22Moo, new video glasses
22Moo has previewed its HMD800, a new set of video glasses that it hopes will break through psychological price barriers with an 800x225 widescreen image equivalent to a 30-inch TV viewed at a distance of 6.6-feet. The glasses display video from any standard RCA input in either NTCS or PAL formats, and are specifically designed for newer iPods with photo or video support, according to Electronista. Playback lasts up to eight hours on a lithium-ion battery, according to the company, and the frame adjusts to nearly any head size. The HMD800 is expected to ship in North America, Australia, and New Zealand by the end of this year for $200.
