I had a demo of one of these on a recent visit to Indiana University.  Very
cool; it's a lot more immersive than our head-mounted display (which has a
pretty small field of view, about 48 x 36 degrees).  Also made me a lot
sicker, I was in it for about 15 minutes & took a couple of hours to
recover.  :-(
