The EPSON Moverio BT-100 is now being sold via EPSONStore.com and Amazon.com, selling at $699.99. The device is already out of stock on Amazon.com. Links are provided at the end of this article.
The glasses use micro-projection technology and is controlled by a given track pad controller. There are 2 displays, 1 per eyeball, which makes it almost obvious it will have 3D compatibility.
