The Sony SmartEyeglass is now available to developers in the U.K. and Germany, and it has a camera! I’ll keep this brief. I’m sure that Sony doesn’t want the negative reaction that Google Glass got, so they designed and (hopefully) marketed it differently. Unfortunately, much of the negative reaction to Google Glass was due to its camera. Some people (I think many) are offended by wearable cameras because they can record unsuspecting people.

The price will be $840 in the U.S., £520 in the U.K., €670 across Europe, and ¥100,000 in Japan.
We’ll see what happens. You can see the SmartEyeglass on Sony’s website.
