Video Glasses for Frequent Flyers

Mikimoto-Beans i-Theater

— December 13, 2007 — Tech
For the frequent flyer in your life, here's a must-have gadget that he'd love to find in his Christmas stocking. Priced at $300, the Mikimoto-Beans i-Theater Video Glasses will transform any airline seat into a full-fledged movie theater experience. I've seen similar before, but this baby, once hooked to your iPod, transforms that 2.5 inch display into a virtual 50-inch plasma screen. It tips the scales at barely 3 ounces, has integrated stereo headphones, and can be used even with non iPod video devices.

The best part about the glasses, apart from its Cyclops-esque good looks, is that a single charge gives you enough juice to view an entire season of your favorite series. Great news if you're flying cross country or are on a transatlantic flight. Santa, please take note. I've been a very good girl this year.
