The magOctober 27, 2006 Fancy having a HMD (Head Mounted Display) to use with your iPod video but don’t fancy the high ticket price? The magnificently-named 22Moo, which partnered with one of the world's largest HMD manufacturers to create a sub-US$200 HMD dubbed the HMD800. The HMD800 provides a virtual 30" theatre-like image with “clear and exquisite detail” – their words not ours, though we do have a set arriving shortly so we’ll let you know what to expect in a week or two. The 2.1-track Dolby surround-sound stereo earphone completes the experience of being at the theatre or playing a game while you’re on the train, bus or plane. 22Moo is seeking international distributors for the HMD800.

The HMD800 can be easily adjusted to any head shape and size easily and comfortably and uses a standard A/V terminal interface so it can be used as display for various media players, such as iPod Video, game consoles, Portable Media Players and more.
