any good?  I'm interested in digitizing my stereo pairs and would like a

I got a very early version, and it was quite unsatisfactory on a couple o=
f
fronts. Primarily, the goggles could not be worn over normal "4-eyes"
glasses. I have to hold the goggles about 4-6 inches from my head, which
makes doing anything on a computer impossible. I understand that they may=

have been redesigned since then. I also found the "wireless" infrared
signal to be unreliable, and the glasses "burped" frequently and lost
synch. As I say, these were early releases, and these criticisms may no
longer be valid.
