Anybody know anything about the new vr goggles (supposedly) coming out
from Sony? I heard about it in The Stranger (Seattle "alternative" free
weekly). Excerpt from a 14 Dec 92 column by Clark Humphrey called Misc
follows:

"Cathode Corner: Sony's about to bring cyberpunk one step closer with the
Visortron 'headset video screen.' The goggle-like device contains two
tiny 0.7" LCD screens, one just in front of each eye. Not only could this
mean perfected 3D movies, it'll let bus riders and hospital patients
remove themselves even further from their surroundings. Also, it's one of
the components that 'virtual reality' developers have clamored for."

Where do I call for info? How much do they cost? Where and when can I get
one? Guess it's time to get out there and call Sony's voicemail...
