Review
Overall, I'd rate this a good product. The video resolution IS NOT just like that large screen TV at home, but it gives good video when you are trapped on a plane, etc. Battery life is +/- 3 hours (less than advertised) and customer support from the manufacturer is virtually hopeless, but hopelfully you won't need it. I used the glasses on a cross-country flight recently to replay 2 movies on the iPod (5th generation). The 640x480 resolution is a little grainy, but as soon as you get into the movie, you forget about it. I used my own earphones rather than the "speakers" mounted on the glasses (they are removable). The "speakers" don't quite reach my ears (oops, my big head) and besides, I prefer my Etymonic Research earphones on a noisy plane. I would work hard to get the best price available (the list price is a little too high for what you get), but at the right price, these are a great purchase for those of us who are drawn to high-tech toys.

1.0 out of 5 stars Zero Visibility, January 2, 2008
By Bradley C. Eiler "Muskrat" (Tallahassee, FL) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)
I purchased this product to play my XBOX, XBOX 360, watch a little TV and watch videos on my Zen Vision M. When I opened the box, the glasses were not as shown in the advertisement. After charging the battery, I set out to test this product and noticed that when gaming and watching TV the video quality is dark and you can not see any of the gaming detail even in lighted areas and the same with movies. You can't make out the actors faces. Also, the sound quality was extremely low. There are no adjustments to correct the audio and video settings. In the lower left corner the image was blury. Text was practically unreadable. I did not try it with my Zen Vision M, however, I doubt the video and audio would improve.
