Isn't it predicted to cost just under $1500? Isn't there a contest for early users to win a chance to PREORDER IT FOR $1500? It's cool as fuck, and I swear I want one, but would I ever purchase one? I don't think so.

>>32159173 You're right—the parts are not worth $1500. The current units are being manufactured in-house by Google; once they inevitably DO ship the final design to China for mass productions, the price will likely drop to something like $300.

Speaking of killing privacy forever, I've noticed something funny about Steve Mann. EVERY TIME he requires image proof of some assault, his headset conveniently "breaks", resulting in the "image buffer" not "clearing" the last few pictures in memory. This is from that article he posted a few days ago: >The impact and fall injured my leg and also broke my wearable computing system, which normally overwrites its memory buffers and doesn’t permanently record images. But as a result of the damage, it retained pictures of the car’s license plate and driver, who was later identified and arrested thanks to this record of the incident. He used the EXACT same excuse when some guys assaulted him at McDonald's. He OBVIOUSLY stores permanent images of everything he looks at, and he realizes what would happen if he admitted it: People would rightfully call him out on violating their privacy. Once Glass hits the market, the proud people of America WILL stand up to Google and demand the wholesale ban of head-mounted cameras. Don't be too concerned about Glass becoming mainstream.

>>32159923 The argument would be that overlaying the information would be less distracting than the person looking down to a smartphone. In reality, people wouldn't use it for useful things like a speedometer, but instead for things like texts and status updates. They probably would be banned because of that.
