Vuzix Wrap 310

Here’s the promise: “the world’s first sunglass-style portable video eyewear,” the Wrap 310 “features twin high-resolution LCD wide-screen displays, 2D and 3D capabilities and video projection equivalent to a 55-inch screen viewed at 10-feet. It works with any iPod, laptop, DVD player or smartphone.” And some people get that cinematic on-the-go experience: although the image quality does not equal a true HD TV, testers became pleasurably immersed in the viewing experience. Others, however, noticed a distracting shadowing between the left and right images which detracted from the experience. The Wrap 310 costs $260 at Amazon.ca and elsewhere and will be money well spent for many frequent travellers, but read the store’s return policy before you purchase.
