 Don't waste your money! August 15, 2008
First of all it worked on my 30 gig ipod but not my 80 gig ipod, the one I have about 30 movies on. The one I take on long flights. On either side of the screen there are windows so you can see what's going on around you. This can be taken care of by putting a piece of black electrical tape over the front of the glasses. Those windows sometimes washes out the picture and you should ware a hat down low to block out the light. If your looking for a large screen like looking at a big screen T.V. or movie theatre...forget it. The screen is dark even with the brightness and contrast set the best you could.br /The screen on the ipod video is bigger brighter and so much better than the one in the glasses. As for the sound , You can make it loud but they are no where as good as the bose in-ear headphones. The headphones attached to the glasses are not noise canceling at all. They only reduce the noise because you're sticking something in the ear canal and raising the volume not like true noise canceling headphones like the bose quiet comfort. br /These things are just expensive toys. br /Thanks to Amazon marketplace i was able to buy these for under $150.00 brand new and even at that price I feel I got ripped off. I am sure you can make better use of your money.br /Video glasses have a long way to go.
 Video glasses August 3, 2008
I love these glasses. It is so great to be lying on your bed watching your favorite videos or movies. The picture is great and really does give the feeling you are watching a screen from around six feet away. My friends are always wanting to try them when they come around. Just bought another pair that incorprorates sun glasses with the vidoe shown slightly down, so you drop your gaze to watch it...they are also amazing. Defintely a buy for a gadget guy like myself, and yes, I watch it quite often.
 No, it doesn't work with the 6th gen (Classic) iPod, Touch, or iPhone. April 26, 2008
4 out of 4 found this review helpful
Although it fits nicely, the iPod Classic uses a different video output than the 5th generation. br /br /Apple changed the video specs, so it isn't just this product that won't work most of Apple's own iPod video accessories designed for the 5.5 gen and back won't work with the 6th gen, touch, and iPhone.br /br /Update May, 2008: I have been working with the Myvu folks, they were very receptive to feedback about their website and I hope they will be putting the compatibility information in the FAQ on their website. I would certainly add another star for the stellar customer service they have provided (but, you can't edit the number of stars in an existing review.)
 A dozen pluses, but two flaws. January 3, 2008
This set is great for many things. It has a case so it doesn't drain the battery of your iPod at 4 times the normal rate. You can actually watch movies for as long as your iPod will normally last. The glasses are light, easy to see around so you are not blind to the world around you, the earbuds work very well, and the picture quality is pretty good.br /br /Except that on our version, one eye was significanly brighter than the other eye and there is no way to adjust it. So we have to send it back for repairs. Which is too bad, but not the end of the world.br /br /The biggest flaw, is that you can not adjust the glasses for clarity. If you wear reading glasses you will probably have trouble seeing the screen clearly. And then you have to go through the pain of sending your perscription to someone to make a glasses insert. For a pretty significant fee that will rival the cost of the glasses.br /br /Other than the glasses issue, this device is pretty darn good and we are excited to get them fixed so we can watch our portable theater.
Ok, so it's not cinema level, but it is what is and then some! October 3, 2007
I bought it for one reason, to enjoy movies without the over-the-shoulder, side look, I have to see what you are watching today lookie-loo.br /br /MyVu fits the bill and then some. Great sound and a good picture, not the best, not HD, but a functional movie medium for flight and when you just want the privacy of your movie.br /br /Don't listen to the critics, just get one, and enjoy....br /br /Redbr /br /br /
