Saw that, am looking forward to the model I can buy and hold in my hand. :)

More seriously, this sounds awesome but there are so many vaporware
products in this area that I'm trying to be cautious.

Actually the myvu glasses I have now are not terrible. The key thing
seems to be figuring out how to interact with them. Here the
multi-touch in the iphone fails since I don't want to look at the
phone. Self-updating streams like IRC, push email, or Twitter mostly
work but they only go so far.
