Personally, I think Google Glass could take off but it definitely won't be an instantaneous hit. Here is the way I see things playing out:
1) At first the main use is in the car. It's a place where you can wear them and not feel super awkward since the majority of the people around you probably wont be able to tell you have them on. It has the navigation system built in and you could even record the trip as if your glasses were a dash cam (hey, worked for Russia!).
2) People gradually forget they have it on when driving and end up getting out of the car with the glasses still on. You'll maybe see a few people wear them briefly while walking from the parking lot to the store but it still won't be that public. At least by now it will have been out long enough that people know about them.
3) People wear them more and more out in public and eventually it becomes the norm. Sure, some people might be like "oh that's weird" but they won't think too much about it.
I highly doubt that suddenly the streets will be flooded with Google Glasses right from the start. But I could see a gradual increase in usage if it's primary function is used in one location (like the car).
