You can tell that this is one of those products that will be made fun of for it's size in 20 years. Like looking back at an old iMac now.
 
Apple is trying so hard with these scenes to not show the battery.

We never see the left side of their body.
 
Seriously, who would want to work in an office and having to tilt your head this much? I think they heavily underestimated how much annoying it is wearing this all day for hours. And watching a movie with friends is super lame when everybody is wearing this.

I'm sorry....but I remember so well that announcement in 2007. It genuinely was paradigm exploding and it did change the world and more importantly, you knew instantly you had to have it.

This is nowhere near that. Maybe in time it will, maybe the goggles will turn into glasses and they'll get smaller and smaller. But this is nuts/ Even wearing this around the office seems a chore.

People were underwhelmed by the original iPod announcement back in 2001 ("an MP3 player, that's it?"). But it wound up being very significant in the long run. Not that the iPod itself was a long-lasting product (largely supplanted by the iPhone by 2010), but it transformed Apple into a consumer-focused company.
 
This thing seems cool, but I haven't yet seen a very compelling use case to get one in this presentation. Just seems like yet another iOS-esque device, just in a Minority Report kinda way.

I think it will probably be some time before I buy something like this.
 
Seriously Apple? I have a small head
