For anyone who's going to be at the CES this week (or is in Chicago,
and would be willing to *go* to the CES), rumor has it that Sega will
be there with more details about their new HMD.

Here are the things most people would want to know:

        - when will it be available? (i.e. any earlier than December?)

        - what sort of tracking are they doing? (they may not tell you,
          but check the back of the HMD for (possibly infrared) LEDs)

        - what sort of interface does it have? (again, they may not
          say much; even knowing what boxes plug into what other boxes
          will give us some clues, though)

        - what does it look like from the inside? (resolution, color,
          stripe or delta pixel configuration, field of view...)

Thanks in advance to anyone who finds out anything...
