that A/R Devices imply. Not convinced it's not already a problem as try to talk to someone or work with someone who can't wait to check their phone for messages, email, Facebook notifications, all that stuff, it's already a pervasive source of disengagement from present reality. There, in time, will be places where these data glasses fit in perfectly, a Doctor making rounds, a technician, repairman consulting a schematic, a Baseball manager consulting sabrmetrics to make the right move, a musician playing a score, on and on, but in the common continuous use of them for the endless, useless hoped for distrations this guy is spot on.
