   I can buy a pair of "glasses" here for a couple of hundred pounds or so   
   which have two LCD screens and some oprical gimmickry where the lenses   
   would be, which plug into the video output of an MP4 player. It   
   shouldn't be too hard to build them to take a different input to each   
   screen for full "in your face" 3D. "Eyephones", anyone?
