A lot of us think that, at least in it's current iteration, Glass is pointless, creepy, distracting, and unacceptably invasive to both the surrounding populace and the user themself.
The same thing was said when smartphones (especially those with cameras) started showing up on the market. People could suddenly take pictures and sometimes video of anyone, anywhere, and it would be hard to know. They could even surreptitiously take downshirt and upskirt photos without holding something that looked like a camera and then post them online. And they could look up people they had just met, maybe even during the conversation. And they were always paying attention to the phone, and not looking around at the world.
Roughly the same complaints come up about Glass, although I would argue it has the potential to be less distracting as the world is still there for you to see even while you're using it. It's still in very early stages, and competition seems to be coming around, so the uses for it will increase. I've had at least one opportunity to order, but I'm waiting for a hardware iteration. The current CPU is a TI OMAP 4430, which is no longer in production or really supported by TI as TI dropped out of the mobile processor market in 2012. Once they replace it with something that has a better chance of future Android support, I'll probably dive in. I will, however, keep an extra set of plain glasses with me most of the time (in the car or in a bag) in case I run into a situation where I can't wear Glass.
