Hi Huneybees,
I was invited to ION Sky when Epson announced the company’s most radical and innovative personal display devices ever – the Epson Moverio BT-100 see-through mobile viewer which operates on the Google Android™ 2.2 platform.

| Interesting packaging. Can't wait to see the product... |
I met up with several other invited bloggers and tech guys, everyone was excited to know more about this revoluntionary piece of technology. We had drinks, canapes and waited for the time for the "star" to appear...

| Mr Koichi Endo gave us a short brief on Epson's Moverio BT-100 and he ended off saying he could have done the whole presentation with the Moverio (if he had loaded the information in) and not reading off the piece of paper in his hand. |
A introduction by Vernon Wong to help us understand more about the Moverio.

| Yipee! Time to give the Moverio a test drive... |
 |
| OMG! I got the most amazing massage and viewed movies using the Moverio! |
 |
Even without the shades, I can see the movie clearly and you can't see what I'm watching!

The Epson Moverio BT-100 leverages Epson’s leadership in LCD technology and visual imaging to project a 320-inch perceived “floating” display 20 meters away from the user, for web browsing, playing games, watching videos and interacting with content privately, while still allowing the user to experience and see the real world, thanks to its see-through ability.
Using the Epson Moverio’s Android-powered media player and controller with wireless connectivity, users can watch streaming video from sites such as YouTube or Vimeo, surf the Internet, and interact with apps and downloaded content from any hotspot. Additional features of the Android-powered media player and controller include:
- Excellent Mobility: Rechargeable battery offers nearly six hours of battery life
- Removable Memory: Built-in card slot supports up to 32GB microSDHC cards
- Download and Go: Transfer content, games and apps to the included 4GB microSDHC card or internal 1GB of user storage on the controller.
- Adobe Flash 11 Support: Stream videos from popular television websites featuring Flash 11 content and content rich Flash-enabled websites.
- Big Sound: Dolby Mobile surround sound delivered to personal earphones or Moverio’s detachable earphones (included in-box).
- Innovative Navigation: Touch-enabled track pad and navigational buttons enable easy interaction of content.
- Immersive 3D: Enjoy side-by-side 3D formatted content like never before.
