The shades you're talking about are heavy and expensive and at least 5 years from being mass marketable.

would it be possible if the shades were simply the display and all the processing was done by a console in your pocket?

 

Thats just the shades being expensive. You have to buy the processing power on top of that. I was looking up some Carl Zeiss ones and they cost $400 U.S.D. for what I would consider unsuitable for general use. They are heavy and expensive, you'd need something not much heavier than a pair of shades with OLED screens and costing not more than $150.

That's not too bad, 2 2-inch oleds should be pretty cheap, and I think Carl Zeiss may be upping the margin substantially. But yeah, maybe you're right.

Well, unfortunately then, I really don't see anything Sony can do other than all:

A: 3d display necessary
B: Phone integration necessary
C: both DD, and touch screen necessary
