Can Bluetooth do that, though?

I also heard some fears about their "bone conduction" for audio (i.e. may make you deaf in the long term). But I don't know how true any of it is. I hope Google is the taking health issues very seriously.


Google can counter with: Google Glasses are unlikely cause cancer. Let us repeat it, Google Glasses are unlikely cause cancer.

;)

I for one, would not wear them regularly, even if they were useful and stylish. By the time research comes in, it might be too late for many.
