Does one part of the mount attach to glasses like normal, then the display mounts to the mount via magnets? Or do you need flat metal glasses to wear this display? Any pictures? The size and VGA resolution make it a good buy, esp compared to MicroOptical's standard "Important person only" pricing: $995 QVGA serial driven 36x10 ASCII $1500 QVGA Color $3500 VGA Color So $2999 is cheaper and more accessible. Its smaller than the Cyvisor optics as far as I can gather, and higher res than an M1... so it sounds good.
