Can Someone tell what the excitement is about? While on the one hand, I can see the possible utility of such a computer in certain industrial applications, I cannot see this going mainstream consumer. What is so cool (or comfortable) about wearing two pounds of equipment on your head while squinting through a single eye-piece? You still have to transport all this around in some sort of carrying case, if you want to take it camping or on your next rock-climb..so why not a palm-size? For the price, I'd rather have a remote (wireless)keyboard, all the bells and whistles in a CPU, a mega screen, and surround-sound. What am I missing? Is there really a big market potential? Is the industrial market huge? Do consumers really want this thing? TIA.
