If anyone, anywhere, wants to get me a birthday present that is #1 on the list.
I swoon merely thinking about the awesomeness that is the Recon Jet.
(Now if only they provided a guarantee it'd make a good a rider as Hincapie...)

I have the Recon Mod setup on my Ski Goggles. It is ace, the only problem is on days I don't want to wear goggles, maybe need to invest in some jets as well 
It certainly a damn site cheaper than the Google Glass (x 3) that are currently available on Ebay! And they wont even open up the dev access to non-US

One of the products I'm working in is up your alley Dave. Its a HUD for drillers, the people commissioning the project want to demonstrate it at OTC in Houston next year.
|
|
|
|
|
Sound cool, what area is it targeting? Is it for use by the driller in the doghouse, or on the rig floor, or by the company man sat in his office?
|
|
|
|

Any of those really, but what we wanted to do was to let the driller focus more out the window than down at instrumentation. We also want to get to the point where we can give a pair of glasses to other hands (like up on the monkey board) so that if there is a problem he can just turn the camera on and let video stream to somebody who can help.
The company I contract to does (among other things) drilling instrumentation, like full auto-driller packages so they are just wanting to integrate a lot of that into the newest thing out there. They want to display things like ROP, mud flows, standpipe pressures, etc and have them pop up when they are critical.

I have the Jet on order, and I wanted to use them for a product demo in a trade show in May, but they are having production issues or something and have pushed back delivery to around June.
Last week they had a sale on them, $100 off retail, too bad it was vaporware

Why don't you just buy the standalone Recon Mod Live unit and retrofit it onto a pair of safety glasses or a visor for a mockup purpose...
|
|
|
|
|
I did look at that but I was expecting to get the Jets in plenty of time for the show, they just recently cancelled and now I have the Google Glasses I don't have to rig anything up, better to have a professional product for the show than something glued together

It's about a court case[^], so I initially ignored it, but then I was desperate enough to scan it to see about including it in the Insider[^] (plug, plug, go ahead, subscribe, I dare you) and got to this money exchange:

I wonder if New Egg win all the prior victims can sue for their $45m back, now there would be justice! Except the blasted lawyers get their cut either way!

If the appeal fails, I vote we have a whip round to buy some shells for JSOP.

Crappage.
Well, I guess that was why TGP wanted the trial in Texas (I've heard that court is very pro-patent owner). Hopefully the Supreme Court or whatever will hear it and find for sanity.

Careful you might get a array index out of bounds error with some posters, there seem to be some VB guys here.

I grew up on VB, yet I can still address an index correctly.

Since spirit produces a much better developer than VB would do, you are a cheat.
