Re: Good HMDs - Was: help!!!

Hi everyone.  Here is my 2 cents worth.  If I was creating a HMD right
now, I'd aim squarely at the desktop users.

The tiny cables everyone (not just wearable users) want would end in an
adapter for a desktop unit.

I'd market it as a way to get back desktop space.  I suspect that the
Japanese market would be very fertile on this score.  Further, I suspect
many corporations would love it because they are still  very crowded for
space.

I'd also mention that the user also gets back some privacy where others
can not simply walk up and look over your shoulder.

Obviously, the adapter I mentioned before will help wanna-be wearable
users get started with desktop and laptop units and the manufacturer can
survey the purchasers (with the warranty registration?) as to their
desire to "go wearable".  Then they can gauge that unknown market
better.

regards Tim Miner
