Post starts with:

I’ve been following every single article, video, or meme mentioning Google Glass since its first demo video a few months ago. Google promised a lot; Glasses were meant to be something like “an augmented brain.” It would offer contextual information, interactivity, quick reference, and much more. And now I feel betrayed. Why?

And ends with:

We all know that this is a really early prototype and are willing to see (and buy) something as revolutionary as the iPhone. In the end, the most intelligent move of the day was releasing the early version of the product only to developers (with a US$1,500 price tag), to gain the necessary feedback and try to get things working while surfing on the huge PR wave.

You just answered your own question.

Well, i know it is a prototype. But a camera attached to a pair of glasses? I really expected more, even for a preview.

As did everyone else in the tech community. But I think demoing actual current functionality of the product is much more important than demoing something that doesn't work. The way I see it, Google knows that people won't be shelling out their cash for a camera attached to a pair of classes. They know that if this project doesn't go anywhere, they will have just made a fool of themselves by promoting it so heavily. So I am just gonna trust that Google knows what they are doing and they will blow our minds once the product is further along in the development cycle. And maybe the project will fail and won't go anywhere, but I just think it's a bit early for these kinds of blog posts. Let's wait until an actual product launch.
