Please be cautious with analogies, because often there's no logic in them. For example, in this case, we can further dumb it down to: people like to eat but they don't want to hold a spoon. With all respect, an analogy just makes no sense. I was talking about glasses specifically.
Reminds me of that article from yesterday about umbrellas in England.
I think aiming that kind of stuff for general population is a mistake dictated by greed. Some products need to get gradually accepted before they become popular with the mainstream. General population doesn't like things that look weird and/or different. E.g. it took many years for mobile phones to transition from symbol of weirness to symbol of status to something everyone is expected to have.
I think of headsets more like headphones. No, you don't want to have to wear headphones all day long but when you're getting something out of them, people seem willing to wear them for extended periods of time.
Even if the glasses thing is a hurdle to this becoming ubiquitous consumer electronics, I think the engineering and tech being developed still has quite a bit of promise and I'll be glad to see if they can make some real progress and show something off beyond teasers.
