No. My problem is that it is wearable recording device.

I LOVE the idea of augemented reality. But google glass turnes the whole direction around: Instead of getting information TO the user, it is designed to collect as much information as possible for google.

In the same direction, if somebody using google glass looks at you, that doesn't mean that he might find your facebook and GET info about you - instead he is actively taking part on tracking your movements and reporting them back to google.

THE REPORT IS BULLSHIT.

They didn't unplug the power supply when it was running.

Nobody watched it getting set up.

They used a clamp ampmeter that can only detect AC current, which means they could have had ARBITRARY DC heating current through the element that doesn't show up.

And those scientist watching? They weren't allowed to touch anything because "its secret".

Brightness.

I found it very interesting that he found the display to dim to see anything when looking out of the windshield.

No preview has mentioned this up to now, and I think thats an interesting issue. If you cannot even see the turn by turn display of google maps in daylight, how will the other usability be?

This happened in 2010.
Those were old computers.
They already had the money to buy replacements budgeted in their 2010/2011 budget.

So they had to decide to pull the effort the reimage everything for a couple of months, or just buy the new ones early. Buying the new ones early did cost a bit more (30k for all of them), but less then a cleaning would have cost.

The servers, who where not sheduled for replacement, were reimaged just fine.
