Congratulations to Reflection Technology for a clever and sexy product. However, I worry a little when I see things like this... >Potential users may include doctors receiving patient records, field >engineers needing technical documentation; salespeople wanting access >to product documentation during a sales call; drivers needing maps to >their destinations... I can just see some bozo driving down the road with this thing over one eye. Of course, who needs depth perception for good driving? :-) An I thought mobile phone stupidity was bad. Also, despite what all the experts may say about eyestrain, people didn't evolve using their two eyes to look at two entirely different things, so you're unlikely to get off scot free doing so. Prudence would suggest not using the display for hours at a time. Jeff Winslow PS. No, I have no idea what George would suggest.
