For two years, Google has been building the buzz around their revolutionary new glasses and for the first time on Tuesday they will be available to the public for one day for $1,500. But we wonder, after two years, has the public already tired of them?

‘s Todd Bishop joined to talk about the Google Glass product. First off, he explained what Google Glass is.

“Google Glass is essentially an augmented reality experience that sits up in the upper right corner of your eye and provides information about the world around you, such as directions of where you’re headed on a walk or your bike,” says Bishop. “It allows you to record what is in front of you, audio and video, and take pictures. It’s essentially a pair of glasses that supplement your world.”

But at a price tag of $1,500 who are these glasses made for?

Bishop explains Google is still very much in the testing and trial phase for the product and that’s not likely the price they’ll go to market with.

“Fifteen-hundred dollars, to be clear, is just a ridiculous price for the features that they’re offering,” says Bishop. “I think the assumption, or at least the hope is, when they actually do come to the public in a big way that it will eventually be something closer to $300, $400 at the most.”

The release that they’re doing Tuesday, Bishop says, is pretty limited and really more of a gimmick. But for those interested, visit and maybe land one of the limited number being released for $1,500 on Tuesday.
