Does anyone have any information on the availability/distributors of
HMD's (particularly the VFX1 and the i-glasses) or the costs involved
in buying direct from the US and shipping back to Australia (i.e
import tariffs, customs, tax, etc.)

Also if you have any comments about which of the above HMD's to get
(but not just these ones only if you know of something better) I keep
reading good and bad stories about each, but equal praise for both so
that I haven't reached a conclusion on which is actually better. I
would be more intrested in how immeresive each is, but obviously the
image quality and software support etc are very important factors. Are
there that few a number of people out there who own either or both of
these or other HMD's??!

Any help much appreciated
Andrew
