Comment Forget the fashionable, focus on usefullness (Score 1) 118
I think Google is missing the point when it tries to focus on "fashionable" side (or lack of) in the glasses.
Once it becomes useful, it has a potential to replace all displays and soon after the fashionable point becomes moot as people really want the thing. Yes it will be ugly first, but just like tablets, hands free dongles, USB sticks etc. the exterior will mature once it's useful.
But I'm afraid Google is doing this wrong, just like Bill Gates and Microsoft as they tried to introduce concept of tablets too early, when the technology was not ready.
