In a recent post from the UK, someone mentioned the "Visette" 
(head-mounted display) for a video game.

I recently heard for the first time about W Industries,
a UK-based manufacturer of head mounted displays, datagloves, 
and force-feedback gloves.  

Does anyone know much about these folks?  This is the first 
real commercial alternative to VPL (in the US) that I've heard
about.

The the things W sells _look_ quite hot -- much better than
the VPL stuff (which have all the style of my Datsun...).
