eyebud for ipod

The Apple iPod has been accused of making people more distant from each other – every iPod user is seen to be immersed in their own world. Meet the eMagin EyeBud 800, which turns your iPod into big-screen TV for one.

eMagin Corp. has developed a wearable headset system that plugs into Apple Computer’s portable media device and displays video from it in front of one eye, using optical technology designed to give the picture a higher resolution and make it appear larger than on the iPod’s screen. The US$600 device makes you think that you’re watching a 105-inch screen 12 feet away.

So if you don’t mind people looking at you strangely, you’ll no more issues of having people watch your shows over your shoulder while in the subway!
