i-O Display Systems has introduced the i-Theater, a new wearable display for video iPods and other portable devices. The $500 headset features dual QVGA resolution screens (320 x 240) which the company says are the equivalent to watching a 50-inch display viewed from a distance of 8.5-feet. The i-Theater weighs 3.5 ounces, comes with a rechargeable battery, and offers a “sleek, ergonomically comfortable and lightweight design.”

The person who buys this has too much money, too much time and too little brains to realize that it is too much.

Could somebody *please* release something at this price with a resolution good enough to actually do something else than watching crummy yet visually inflated iPod-sized video?

Watching video on the the 2 inch ipod screen kind of sucks. You can’t see things clearly. If those glasses can really generate a video image that looks like a 50 inch tv screen, I’d say they’re worth it. They look cool compared to other devices I’ve seen.
