This new advertisement of Google Glass showcases the
product's functionality, from photos to maps to sharing. The company is now
soliciting applications for invitations to purchase a Glass Explorer Edition
for $1500.
Does Google's latest promotional video for Glass have
you longing for a pair of the augmented reality glasses? Well, we finally have
official word from Google that it is aiming to release a
"fully-polished" version of the wearable headset to consumers by the
end of this year. The company has also informed us that Google Glass will cost
"less than $1,500" when it goes on sale.
Last June, the first pre-orders for the
"Explorer" edition of the headset were made available to
developers at Google I/O for $1,500, and they were set for delivery sometime in
the early part of this year. Earlier this week, Google opened up
pre-orders for the Explorer headset to "creative individuals"
for the same price, but that program is selective and requires a brief
application. Today is the first time that Google has provided specific
information on Glass' release to the public, but there have been hints that
it'd be available in 2013.
Last May, Sergey Brin said "I have
some hopes to maybe get it out sometime next year."
