Google Glass Available to Consumers in the U.S.
Outside of a brief purchasing window a few months ago, there wasn't a guaranteed way of getting your hands on a pair of Google Glass; tou pretty much had to be chosen to experience what it was all about. Many people have heard about Google Glass, but in some ways it's still kind of mystery until you've actually have had to wear a pair. However, that's all changed as Google has finally made Glass available to people in the U.S. for a price tag of $1500. For now, they'll only be available to those living in the States until Google really pushes the product to more consumers. Until then, they'll continue to work on improving the software and hardware, as well as bringing ways to lower the cost. If you've been dying to own Glass, you can head on over to Google's official website to buy a pair. Check out the video of some of the first to experience Glass and what they enjoyed about it.

It looks like Google Glass has an eye on the everyday consumer with its newest Titanium Collection that consists of four frames for those with prescription glasses. There are four different styles available: thin, split, bold, and curve in an assortment of colors that should appeal to many people. As you can see by the photos, the glasses still have a futuristic look to them, but makes you look less like a cyborg. Also for those who are lucky and don't need prescription frames, there are also sunglasses available. It'll be interesting to see the evolution of Google Glass and how they go about targeting an audience that might be weary of wearing the current models, but as this collection suggests, Google Glass has taken steps to really hit the mainstream. For now, w'll have to wait and see if people will truly feel the need for a product like Google Glass when it launches to more consumers later in 2014. Just remember, if Glass is a bust, there's always Google Lens.
