how much to pay for eMagin z800 ? any idea

Post by tomtom2012 »

now new HMDs around - how much to pay for eMagin z800 ? any idea
i got an offer from online store - negotiating with store owner
the unit is open box item

i know that z800 optics are the best to date - usb powered and light weight - 3D not sure
lemme put it like this in a cude way - worst - how much is it worth as 2D monitor ?

help will be appreciated

analysis :
1)better than vuzix 1200VR [usd599] so i guess usd599 'd be the base value
2)sony HMZ [usd799-1100] depending on version

so usd599 <z800<usd799 right ? :?

I'd say up to about US$500 is the _real_ value of it IMHO.

Odd you would come to that conclusion, one of the only people here who thinks that is Ancjob. They are good, but certainly not the best.
