Reviews

The Australian IT Section Review
http://technology.news.com.au/products/pr90518a.htm

A news item in the Australian (taken from The Times) - they are of course wrong about it not being available in Australia.
http://technology.news.com.au/features/f90327b.htm

Geare Magazine (issue 6, Autumn 2000)
"The Glasstron is futuristic, it's state of the art and, when hooked up to a portable DVD player, could very well be the only thing that'll keep you sane on that next flight to London."

Portability
Best product of its kind
