why fashionable glasses, surely this will dramatically add to the price of a pair of Google glasses. Get it out for mass public at a reasonable price first, then those who group of users who can afford to buy Ray-bands etc then that's fine.

Yeah......and how many of your "high end Oakleys" have you sat on, left behind, lost on rollercoasters, etc, etc, etc???
This lame-ass idea will only deter MOST from ever buying as now they can slap a ridiculous price tag of $1500.00 PLUS 199.00 for the meritless OVERPRICING of Oakley quality sunglasses.
best pair of sunglasses i tried were a pair m8 got in bali for $4.he had about a dozen pairs including oakleys and i didn't find the oakleys great.
I had a pair of choppers sunglasses in 2006 they were actually very nice sunglasses, the lens in them were great.
Personally i'm not a fan of overpriced sunglasses, i have normal glasses and i gotta say the lens on a $56 pair from big W are shocking,they get dirty too quick and are poor quality only had them a year and the paint on the frames is already mostly peeled off.
knowing google they will add an insane price tag to the well known branded glasses & idiots will pay the extra for the brand cause they are materialistic.

- Go to church "every day". lol - Local Radio Stations and their ads, etc.
- "American" Reality TV or Movies BS garbage (Like: The Hunger Games style Films) or any regular TV channels with ads.
- Video games: playing the same scenes 'till I get sick of it.
But is only one thing I just don't give up: Is to dress nice to get the chicks I want to.
