Myvu: The Portable Bigscreen for your iPod
July 14, 2007 by Truman
This item by Myvu is very unique. Imagine being able to watch all of the Movies, Podcasts, and TV Shows that are on your iPod, on a bigscreen. This "Myvu Personal Media Viewer" sort of looks like a pair of glasses. Practically, the Myvu is a pair of glasses with "lenses" built in, that show video.
The lenses are so close to your eyes, that the video looks huge (Can't be good on the eyes). The eyewear has earbuds built in, so having this and your iPod would be ideal for a long plane or car ride. This product is very lightweight, and a major plus is that you can see around and over the eyewear, so, although it might look weird, you can multitask while watching a movie if you really want to. There are two options when purchasing this device.
Myvu for iPod - Solo- $200
- For 30, 60, or 80 gig iPod Video
Myvu for iPod - Fully Loaded
- $300
- For 30, 60, or 80 gig iPod Video
- Hard iPod Case/Battery Pack
- Travel Case for Myvu and iPod
- A/C and Car Adapters for charging
- 8 hours of video playback
Now, this is, by NO means, a way to get girls, or pick up chicks. It's actually quite the opposite. I mean, yeah, it looks cool in that kind of "wierd geeky, but shiny" kind of way, but that's about it. In the event that you do get made fun of for wearing this though, just tell the bully that you get to go to the movies, no matter where you are. Odds are that they will look at you as if you are an alien, and then walk away. I am guessing you are very secure aboutyourself, and still want one. So, for anyone who gets really bored on plane or car rides, this is the gadget for you. If you are going to spend the money already, though, you might as well spend the extra $100 dollars on the chargers, case, and extra battery life.
