It will have the phone included and be part of a carrier subsidized offer. Then everyone will have them.

Dunno. Carrier subsidies seem to be dying.
No doubt it'll be cheaper in the not too distant future (I expect it to be < $300 when production ramps up). But the carriers seem to be dropping overt subsidies.
Or maybe they'll be sponsored ala AT&T's sponsored data stuff - http://www.reuters.c...BREA050PT20140106 - (but you won't be able to opt out without paying a small fortune), or something... Since I already have spectacles, I'm waiting to see how the prescription version work out, and for the cost to fall substantially, before seriously considering such things. But even then, it may be after retirement before I purchase one (I imagine lots of workplaces won't permit them for years). 3? Maybe, but I'd be surprised. Cheers, Scott. |

Glad I passed...
Matt Uebel: But the other side of the coin is - after struggling (and failing) to stablize KitKat for 3 months (If anything, they've gone downwards - While some users started having problems immediately after XE16 went live, I didn't start having issues until XE18.x - the XE18 series has rendered my Glass unit nearly unusable.), Google has suddenly thrown extra RAM at the problem without fixing the issues on 1GB devices. I'm sure people who bought a dual flopppy 8088 IBM PC felt the same way. Still... Cheers, Scott. |

That's really lazy of them.

Interesting.
We're ready to accuse Apple or MS of deliberately ignoring older hardware to "encourage" users to upgrade but less willing to believe Google would. Wade. Just Add Story http://justaddstory.wordpress.com/ |

My point exactly.

As they say, the pioneers get the arrows.
Alex "There is a cult of ignorance in the United States, and there has always been. The strain of anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that "my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge." -- Isaac Asimov |
