Its one of these things that will have its small niche uses and customers. Like Segways or Bluetooth earpieces. But it’s definitely not a transformational or paradigm changing new way of everyday interfacing to computing.
There is an integrated HUD motorcycle helmet project ( LiveMap ) that i am far more interested in, i could potentially look at skiing goggles with a HUD too.
It sounds like a solution in search of a problem (like the Shuttle and ISS). No one has developed a killer app for it yet and the technology appears about as well developed as a 1986 laptop. Maybe, like Microsoft, they’ll get it right by version 3.0.
