Why do I need to pay $800 for this? I already paid a grand to have a phone disrupt my every waking moment!

This is very impressive for a first version of the AI glasses from Meta.

Zuck really has cracked this one.

To Downvoters:

Give credit where credit is due.

I think you are going to realize in a few years why tens of billions was poured into Reality Labs and Oculus.

Version 2 or 3 of these glasses is going to set Meta ahead of the rest (except at least Apple).

I'm getting Macworld 2007 vibes

I am getting Phillips CDI vibes. It takes me back to a mid 90s infomercial where products will built by marketing departments and companies with cash to splash. There is just no bottom up cool factor. At all.

I think the tech is really cool. But I was actually hoping for a device that does the whole "phone strapped to my face" thing without actually looking like one. I mean if I'm already staring at my screen, why not make it easier?

I saw the keynote, and while everything about the glasses was more or less as expected, seeing Zuck easily navigate the interface and type 30 words per minute while barely moving his fingers was a true WTF moment. If they can actually make the neural interface work that well then Meta has won this round.
