Creating a wrist mount for my N810 now, should be done in a week or so. Using the car mount with a simple carpal tunnel brace (modified). Aluminum yard stick (now in pieces). JB weld/epoxy and a dremmel tool. Ill post pics when finished. I kept it simple and useable. I found the need for it when geocaching (www.geocaching.com) I was weary to carry the n810 in my hand wile hiking. Immagine dropping it or landing on it in the woods...yikes.

it shows the usual problem with video glasses, they have to go all to far in front of the eyes...

Well, one company made a video goggles that was rather interesting as it used a low power video projector to actually project the image onto your retina. Not sure what happened to those, but they held a lot of promise. Especially since you could get some crazy high resolutions off it with little trouble.

i think they had issues scaling the projector down so it was comfortable to wear for extended periods...
