Re: Eye-Link Hack

I'm new to this list.

I'm new to HMD's too.

I'm still trying to figure out how to turn a view
finder into a HMD. Though I have gotten some help I
haven't yet been able to try out the advice.

I've been looking though here and there and seen links
on buying all the stuff and buying kits like at
tekgear.com and such. What I'm trying to figure out is
why someone would bother with a kit when they can
pickup a pair of I-glasses or such on ebay for under
200 USD???

It's just a wonder, being of a questioning background
I love to tackle new projects and do things my self
and learn. Though most of the time those projects are
things that cost a fraction of what it would cost to
just go out and buy it. Yea at full retail things like
eye-link and i-glasses cost alot but at ebay prices
and sometimes new still in the box I have to question
the expense.

Just wondering what others have to say on this issue.
