I think it's a lot easier to sell a consumer experience than an enterprise device. And you can tell a consumer how to use a product, whereas an enterprise expects the product to meet their needs.

I wanted my Glass to help me with my business flow (namely, being on call at work), but it wasn't built to do things like... Connect to a non-Gmail account. And Google's requirement of uploading every photo I took meant I couldn't securely take work photos with it.

I have one of my best pictures of my chinchilla because of it though... Only way I've ever been able to hold something with two hands and take a picture.

You would probably be better served with something from Vuzix.

Their products are full Android devices, as best i can tell.
