I'd not buy one with a wire. If the current Glass is conspicuous without one, imagine how much more it will be when there's a wire running awkwardly down from your glasses. Plus, I can't count how many times I'm out in the world with an earbud in and the cable gets snagged on something. The first time that happened with the Glass and the quick-release didn't let go, there goes my glasses and Glass, leaving me blind and out hundreds/thousands of dollars. Like many, I imagine if I were to buy one it would be with corrective lenses, which means then I would have to carry a second pair of normal glasses with me so I can put the Glass away when I'm indoors -- while it may be alright to put your headphones in when you're outside on the street, I'm not 16 anymore and can't get away with looking like I've got my earbud in sitting at my desk or having lunch with a colleague. A cord would solve a problem with old technology. The point of this is to do things a new way.
