"...Video Goggles (http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/usb-gadgets/98d3/) that plug directly into your video iPod and project a virtual 24 inch TV directly in front of you!"

I was thinking about buying one. The problem seems to be the quality/size of the virtual screen. Look at the product specs:


Equivalent to 24 inch TV at approx. 2 m.
320 x 240 , 24-bit color, 50–60 Hz frame rate


So, it's not very impressive. There are models with bigger screens, but the price is really higher.

Anyway, would be nice to read the opinion of someone who actually have one.
