These are all nice, but I'd rather have thin AR glasses powered by the phone's CPU/GPU at some point. Might fix the smombie infestation, too.

I would love one, just for our(brain) memory or lack of thereof; especially to remember faces of people we meet once, when we meet again after several years and they ask do you remember me? The smart AR glasses should give us the name via bone conduction!

Your comment made me research what happened to Google glasses and I found this:

Why are these not available to the public?!? Because of the Google glass PR disaster?

I think that's probably the reason Apple decided not to take a risk with their version:
