regarding eye-strain: do you think it's due to the specific display hardware Glass has at the moment, or a fundamental problem with headsup displays?

The position is a little tiring, but its semi-transparent, and the text is small, and the resolution is low. Also, you are reading with one eye. That makes a difference after a bit.

Thanks! Semi-transparent and one-eye would be tiring. Fixing them (two-eyes + removable patches) would be a different product, almost an occulus. But it's helpful to see the keyboard...
I go bicycle touring, and a heads-up map while cycling would be convenient. Plus, it would require less room to use in a small tent/bivvy bag.

Here is where I've found it good use: biking, hiking, parties/wine tastings/weddings, parades, etc. Driving is a fairly good use case as well. If there is a clear use for it people don't seem to care I'm wearing it, and its pretty fun with Auto-Awesome.
