Google glass, anyone ordered today?

I just placed an order for the Google Glass just to see what's the fuzz since they were giving away free shades with today's public offering (US at least)...

Anyone else got one?

The order was a PITA... they needed US CC, address and even US IP address...

Oh well, nothing a good old VPN couldn't take care of.

Got one in charcoal black with classic shade. Gonna rock it while becoming the opposite of chick magnet... ... at least according to my wife.

I think the frame just allow you to fut regular prescription on. So, unless your glass need special frames, you can do it.

You know you want it!

Ok, enough of me pursuing people to join the douchbag group

I have seen probably the same joke every time Google Glass was the subject of any discussion.

I'm going to write a small app that does exactly that just for the fun of it... and charge $0.99 for it... every Glass owner will download this shit and I will be rich!!!






On a second thought, there are less that 30k Google Glass out there... probably won't make much.

Yeah... the price sucks. Google is basically asking early adopters to pay big bucks and be their free beta-testers...

I wasn't even considering buying at that price until about 3 weeks ago, boss came to me asking "you know about the fuzz of wearable techs? Like the Google Glass thing?"
Me: Read a lot about it, but haven't gotten one.
Boss: Well, in our business, we have to stay ahead of the game. Can you get one and find out what it is about and how it might impact our business?
Me: I guess I could find a few googler friends for an invite to purchase
Boss: Ok, get on it... send the bill to accounting, it's not crazy expensive right?
Me: yeah, I think it's not too much...

my friend tried it at work (not locally in LA) and she says it's a bit overrated/hyped
very keen to try one but obviously not at that price

Was thinking of getting one as well but a lot of my coworkers have worked with it and used it and it isn't really at a "practical" level yet. You're forced to look at the corner. It would be really cool if it actually overlayed what you were looking at.

Also a couple of people have been attacked who have been wearing one over here: Another Google Glass wearer attacked in S.F. - SFGate Blog lol

I guess Google Glass is quite profitable at $1500... I just checked the tracking, and Google sent it via next day air... it's out for delivery already and should be at my US mailbox by today.

But I can't make my way there... fuuuuuu
