people long. \u00a0It moved pretty quickly, which was good, and I was in the door and playing with glass in right at an hour. \u00a0Overall, it was very easy to use and did a pretty good job of dealing with all the noise in the hall. \u00a0Given I have glasses now, having had to give up contacts a while back, I was also pleased that the display was clear and legible. \u00a0Looking up into the sky lights, it did a good job of handling strong sunlight too.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_771\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-771\" style=\"width: 150px\" class=\"wp-caption
