It's OK to walk around with a phone camera facing out, but heaven forbid you got it on your face. I don't believe smart glasses will be socially acceptable until Apple does it, and to me, that's a little disappointing. It's not a tech reviewer's job to sell you a product. If they're selling you a product, they're marketing it. Google used to be a place where you could search for something, get a list of results, click the first one, and then you were done. I don't know where that Google is anymore. And the Googlebook? I'm the target customer, but I still don't want one. At least, the hardware. Today.
