gotta love the design, no one for samsung to copy! talk about a lot of 
un-needed bits on something that small where space is precious.

sick enough of folks glancing at their phones constantly (we have a house guest 
right now that looks to his phone about 50% of the time he is talking to you 
and at times will totally ignore you, im almost to the point of grabbing the 
phone out of his hand and telling him he can have it back when he leaves), now 
its going to be their watches and soon just a totally distant distracted gaze 
out the glasses. for what? less human contact, thats for sure.

i cant wait till i run into the first google glass person, im going to run 
around keeping out of their field of view, getting behind them and looking over 
their shoulders and try to look thru the glasses. or ill just put up a mirror 
in their face...

you can guess where im on this one...

one cool new mobile gadget that actually looks to very useful is sony's new 
camera that wifis to a phone or tablet (basically just lens, sensor and 
battery, no screen). strap it to the back of your phone to have a 10x zoom with 
some optics and decent sensor or just plunk the nice little lens unit by itself 
in harder to get to places to take shots from and control from your device. 
basically like the gopro wifi but this you can control the optics from the 
device. i can see using this for doing static model shots or plopping down in 
the model train layout to get really neat views to do video or still from. this 
like the gopro will stimulate some fun and creative uses, products, and content.

cheers
