Slightly before the holidays, we here at JAMM discovered an extremely cool looking new device, the MyVu Personal Media Viewer. I wrote to MyVu asking for one to review, and was fortunate enough to receive one in the mail a few days ago. I have to say, this is one cool device. I am going to start off with this post, primarily showing some photos so you can all see what we are talking about.

Essentially, the MyVu is a set of goggles with earbud headphones (and yes, that is yours truly modeling them for you). The unit I received attaches to a video iPod, however, there is another version which can attach to any mobile device (including Pocket PC and laptops).

So, follow the break to take a closer look.

The entire unit, along with all of the necessary accoutrements comes in a nice clamshell hard case. This makes it a little bulky, but is great for avoiding damage while carrying it around.

Here is a closer look at the goggles. They make you look a lot like LaForge from Star Trek: The Next Generation. Essentially, each eyepiece consists of a polarized window and a screen. This means you view the screen with both eyes, and you can also see beyond the screen with either eye. Nonetheless, I would not recommend using this while walking down the street.

The MyVu also comes with a clip which attaches to your shirt or collar. This clip allows you to control the video as you watch it. Fast Forward, Rewind, Play, Pause, even control the volume, all from this unit which is always nearby.

Finally, a shot of everything that comes with the box. In addition to what I have already shown you, it also comes with a case which slips around and connects to your iPod. It also comes with some extra pieces such as nose clips and earbuds. Finally, there is both a wall plug and car charger so you will always have a full battery.

Keep watching JAMM for my full review of the MyVu Personal Media Viewer coming soon.
