It hardly needs promoting with techies does it? I would buy one right off the shelf if they put it up for around 500$ and I suspect I'm not alone. The more interesting challenge is how to make wearing the glasses socially acceptable.

I wear contact lenses and I would buy one of these without prescription glass in them. Not to use as glasses, but for the value-add. Adding features to the outdated design of the human body is a net positive as far as I'm concerned.

  There aren't any with prescription glass in them. The glasses form factor is a convenient way to hide the battery in your hair.

    There are/were plans to make some that would fit over existing prescription glasses, though, I think.

    And to hold the glass on your face, a requirement even if there were no battery.

  I wonder if he means socially accepted as in you've suddenly turned into a walking CCTV camera. I'd feel uncomfortable if a friend brought these on a night out, but then again I think I'd be a minority here in the UK. Don't take them to France though.
