Google Goggles Demo AR Information in your face.

At Google I/O, the annual Google tech conference, corporate heads let everyone know they're further ahead on Google Glass--those neat virtual reality glasses you may have seen--than anyone thought. They're available now for pre-order, but for the time being will only be sold to U.S.-based developers attending the I/O conference. They'll be let go to those select few for a cool $1,500. No word yet on when the general public will be able to get their hands on one.

Gosh I would like one!! Hopefully when it comes out though the screen can be on either side since i'm legally blind in my right eye.

Nice skydiving video, but has totally nothing to do with the promised functionality of the glasses. Any basic minicam could've filmed all that...

....huuuhhh??????.......
