So a little while ago I finally bought those damned glasses. Dropped 400$ from my bank account and 2 days later there they were. Being the excitable person that i am i stood in the mail-room and tore off the packaging before rushing upstairs to try them out. And i was shocked at the quality. The focus dials are a little hard to get at first and the first few times using text may take a little bit to focus but now my eyes are fully trained and its like having a personal movie theater in my pocket. I don't know if I'm just seeing it weird but the screen looks a hell of a lot bigger than the advertised 60 inches. Currently i only have the iPod and composite connections but i cant wait for them to bring out the HDMI cable later this spring.
Pros:
-Awesome TV in my pocket
-Works with everything i own besides laptop(until i get the HDMI cable)
-Can now own people in reach while laying in bed
-Don't have to lay awkwardly in bed while watching TV; The screen rotates to fit you
Cons:
-Only thing i have it that it sticks out from my face more than the pictures make it appear. But not a big issue as i don't much care what i look like because the glasses are just that badass
Overall I'm going to give them a 9.7/10. If your even slightly interested in being cool id suggesting heading over to The Vuzix Website and checking out a pair of your own.
A blog where I talk about me and the interblag and news. Oh and all my crazy ideas.

Mail call! and other such nonsense.
Well hello there. So today i got a package! inside was among other things, a hot glue gun! whats this for you might ask? well like many other people before me i am making Mark VI mjolnir armor from Halo. When you see my 360 (sometime soon when i don't have anything else) you will understand why. But anyways so far all i have it the helmet made and partly fiber glassed.
When i went to college i left it behind and made a huge mess trying to make a scorpion tank with Elmer's glue. And tape. A whole ton of tape. Now that's almost done and ill be finishing off the final wheel eventually.
But the main point is i will start working on my armor and fiber glassing it when i get home :D however my armor wont be just normal armor oh no. I'm using a friends old laptop that has a broken screen, mounting it in my back with the fans expelling air downward through the suits air vents from the game and using that to power a set of Vuzix Wrap 920AR glasses so that i can overlay what I'm seeing with a HUD.
Oh and i have a gold visor already as well so i will be looking so awesome. As of now i don't know what I'm going to put on the HUD. Any ideas?
After(if) i finish the tank I'm going to make the M9 pistol from the series before i move on to the armor.
On the gaming note I'm starting to get really into Halo Reach. send me a friend request @ KingSnake2058 if you want to play Firefight or 2v2v2. I'm practicing for a tournament this weekend lol.
