Oceanic HUD Mask

Has anyone had the opportunity to try Oceanic's new HUD mask, and if so what was your experience & opinion ?

I tried one on, but haven't used one in the water. IMHO, it's cool, but doesn't add enough value to justify the expense. I prefer a mask that gives me a wider field of view, and a wrist mounted computer.

I tried one on at a dealer, and was amazed that I could read the gauge. He said that they magnify it so you can read it easily. I'm 62 and with Bifocals and could read it fine, but OH! the price tag that goes along with it.

I could have bought one, but I chose to get a tank, bc, regs, wetsuit, boots, gloves, fins, and a regular mask instead. I figure those will probably do me more good.

I would pick one up if they were at the price they were selling them to Divemasters when it first came out. ($400)
