Honestly, the aesthetic doesn't bother me too much. And it's a hell of a lot better than every lab prototype I've seen that bulges out 2 inches from the head.

It's the $1.5k price point that's the deterrent. Under $200, it's a toy. Above $1k, it's an aspirational lifestyle accessory.

Then again, I don't bat an eye when I meet a lifelogger. I idealize a world of wearable computing, but to date, most uses of them seem to err more on the side of distracters than optimizers of one's life.
