With sales opening up today I was wondering if anyone is going to get Google Glass.  I can't think of a reason to have one right now and the price is steep.

Didn't even know it was going on sale today.

I prefer a sunglasses version and/or a contact lens version. I do not wear glasses or contact lens at all so...

Na, no interest in it.  Plus, to be one of the first to have it, price is to steep.  Will wait to see what the consumer price is and even then I wont get it unless I find a use for it.  Have enough tech as it is collecting dust.

Seems to me it would invite unwanted attention, harassment, and possible theft.

 

The same was said about smart phones when then first came out. Now they are an every day thing.

 

I'd like to take Google Glass for spin, but think the novelty fact would wear of quickly.

Hah so for anyone keeping track.... even the prices on the accessories are outrageous.

 

$50 for a protective pouch. (It's a bag with a string)

$75 for a protective case (it's one of those soft camera cases with a zipper)

$75 for a clear shield that you can use instead of tinted lenses or perscription (piece of plastic worth .07 cents.)

$85 for stereo earbuds (umm ok)

Yikes!  I think we can start using the term "Google tax".

Probably just the preview/early access price for those who want it now and want to test it.  I doubt these will be the prices after it is released to the general public.  No way anything will sell if so.

No. don't have the extra $1500 to spend. IRS took it a few months ago.But will wait until pricing goes down and perhaps then.

Give me a left eyed version, then we'll negotiate a nice price!

i never actually though of that... sitting here thinking if i had one, i would actually agree with you... imagining it being in my right eye seems in-the-way.... left eye for sure

Hopefully the production version will be in left & right side versions, or switchable. I can't use anything audio-related on my right side, since I'm hard of hearing on that side.

 

Right-handed, but left-eared. :)
