Hillerby, price is not as much an issue (although, it is an issue) as having an easy to use application people want. Without the app and a convenient infrastructure to deliver content, the hardware will never go anywhere.

Develop a range of useage or conditions where viewing content is acceptable. The HMD on the other side of the kiosk may actually prove to be more convenient and useful in a wider range of conditions. Imagine being in a dim pub, for the benefit of the projector, and wanting to read e-mail or watch Youtube. How likely will it be there is an acceptable, flat surface to project on that will look better than an expensive cellphone PDA, your target market's main accessory? Develop a better scenario, one people will put down their Blackberry for, and you have sales.
