It's purely form factor, resolution, and interactivity. From the article, this product will be like "ski goggles" and it's clear that this is a video see-through (vice optical see-through) implementation. No. Apple should not release this product until the form factor is an optical see-through pair of glasses, the resolution is >35PPD, and user interaction with virtual content is fairly seemless. Anything less and I don't see the product gaining any real traction, which will be a shame after waiting so long for apple to "get this right."
