Virtual Reality Goggles for the iPhone Turn 2D Content Into "3D"

Virtual Reality Goggles for the iPhone Turn 2D Content Into "3D" Good ol' Hammacher Schlemmer—they've taken one company's outlandish idea of a virtual reality viewer for the iPhone, and turned it into a $50 contraption nobody will buy.

It comes with free 3D downloads and games that "come to life" when the iPhone/iPod Touch is slipped inside the viewer. Just be careful when that great white shark leaps out... [Hammacher via UberGizmo]
