Dwight, I'm a potential new stockholder. I've had half an eye on Microvision for years, but the image is foggy. I don't understand MVIS very well, but I don't think built-in displays have much value, especially if the driver can't see them. I don't see why drivers aren't allowed to see the screen. They are allowed to see a speedometer, a radio tuning screen, a notebook, out the window to the right and left, the person in the passenger seat.

People don't like looking at screens in moving cars [get motion sickness].

I was attracted to the goggles retina scan. Getting low cost, low power, high quality, easily carried, large images is a problem.

I wouldn't mind sitting in an aircraft or waiting room or in a car or wherever while wearing some sunglass style retina scanners. I couldn't care less if people think that's weird. They probably thought the first person to wear pants was odd too, but they are popular now.

People will have their own screens - cyberphone devices with their own requirements. I don't see the advantage in building them into cars. Cars last for 10 years and the equipment will be obsolete in 2 years. That's not a good combination.
