I think they look pretty sharp. I especially like the blue color, although it definitely stands out a lot--it's just nice to see a product that isn't glossy black or bright white.

The best thing, I think, would be for Google to offer insurance at some reasonable rate, so you can get a replacement if someone steals your device. I'd pay $50/year to protect my $1500 device.

Or have a remote kill switch on the thing. Make them useless if they've been stolen.

It makes a lot of sense to tie the device to a specific Google account, and not allow a transfer until that account owner deactivates it.

But that's something they'd want to start advertising fairly soon. No point in having a doomsday device if you don't tell the world about it.
