I like the idea of an assistant in your ear, but this thing is vaporwear. They do not have the hardware expertise to build it, and they didn't even try to write the software in-house. "It is tough to make hardware, [...] when you ship it, it has to be right." Yes, very much this. It's hard to overestimate just how difficult shipping a quality hardware/software integration is, especially something this complex.
