Not that I'm a fan of Google Glass, but how do the Spectacles qualify as "something different" when Glass came out like 5 years ago? You can say that Spectacles are well-executed, but claiming that they're somehow "trying something different" makes no sense to me.

The only quality they share with Glass is that they have a camera, you wear them on your face and they tether to your phone. All of which had been done before Glass.

Uh yea, isn't that the entirety of the product? What is the "something different" that you're imagining?
