Google Glass: How Google is wasting an opportunity. While Apple....

Maybe the scene will be lost if the many. Others have enjoyed the live start to finish. It dates back to just two weeks ago. Sergey Brin pussy that makes her entrance on stage showing off the prototype of the futuristic Glass at the annual Google I / O Conference in Mountain View giant.

Sergey Brin, Google co-founder of Google with Glass during the last I / O Conference in San Francisco on June 27 last year.
Behind him a giant screen with the guys that jump from an airplane wearing glasses Google and transmit the flight live on Google +. Applause and standing ovation from the stadium from the room full of developers fomented by the infinite possibilities of technology.

Sergey finished the show to shoot. These glasses are a experimental stuff. You lucky this evening in this room will be the first to try them. We propose them to the friend price of $ 1500 dollars. Delivery expected in 2013. No reaction. Part of the claque. Applause weak and several looks perplexed.

The Glass Warehouse is undoubtedly one of the most exciting and revolutionary products that will enter the market in the coming years. If you have the success hoped completely revolutionize our habits as has happened in the era of the smartphone revolution ushered in by the iPhone.

And I want you here. Why Google Glass not worth going on the market before the end of 2014. And with this presentation space Google has just burned them. Presenting a product so immature so far in advance a just a dangerous gamble. Especially because some gentlemen of Cupertino are certainly not looking to burn that competitors market shares in advance of a certain weight. Them if they sense the scent of money, you turn out the breakthrough product in no time at all and do a bang. And saw how things turned out, Apple may now be proactive.

The story dates back to 2006. The patent in suit, filed in the same year, belongs to a certain Tony Fadell. The guy does not mean anything if it is one of the fathers of the iPod. The contraption is something rude. A system of projection of images on a small screen positioned in front of the human eye. The paperwork of the project have been stacked for years in some kind of record without the final approval for registazione of the patent. In recent days, however, someone in the corridors of Cupertino was reminded. That someone has moved a little 'water on the upper floors and authorizing the recording came two days ago. Coincidence you say perfect. Not so.

Because the 2014 is still missing a lot of time. If he plays well if Apple could do a lot of nice trick Google. Sergey Brin while she goes out with his beautiful occhiletti to sign autographs and dispensing smiles left and right, I guess Tim Cook have already closed in the laboratory of Jonathan Ive super armor while trying stilosissimi a pair of glasses with one who knows which version of Integrated IOS. Cook's face in the mirror. And an evil grin as if to say to our colleagues in Mountain View, "we have cheated."
