for that price tag it better at least be real carbon fiber.

I really want these but just can't pay the 400 if anyone gets these please put up a review!! Id really like to know more!!

500 and a battery lasting 6 hours.... goddamn.

I'll wait a few years to see what comes out of this. Has crazy potential.

I'm glad someone began the initiative and as mentioned it probably carries a lot of potential in years to come, but currently it just doesn't do it for me. Would love to test it though

Photocromatic and polarized, with a gps....what else you need? would be cool to have that data fed in a go-pro cam...for self satisfying riding porn...to check on the lift chair...

Only thing it's really missing is a video camera. You could easily have it mounted to the side of the goggles and have a little SD card slot for it. Actually, I guess you could have the camera capture right where the little gps unit is.
