Google Glass (part 3 - buying + more information)

In this part we are going to tell you where you can buy your Glass and what the price will be + more information about them.
In February 2013 developer received their Glass - Explorer Edition. But they had to pay 1500 $ for them. Also there was a competition, in which people had to record a video on this topic “What will I do if I get the Google Glass”. The winners payed 1500 $ and now they already have their Explorer Edition Glass.
We will be able to buy the Glass in the end of 2013 in Google Centers. They will cost about 200 $.

The device has a touchpad. With its help you can go from one screen to another one (Glass have many screens: photos, messages, weather, etc. With the touchpad you can move from one screen to other one).
You can search in Google with Glass. You should say: OK, Glass, Google (photos) for…

 First steps in using the Google Glass

You can ask Glass to show you weather for today, to start Google Now, to start Google+ Hangout, to translate text to another language or to ask for information about a flight (OK, Glass, when does flight [number of the flight] depart from [airport’s code]). You can start using the Glass by looking up.


If you go to the settings Settings -> Device info -> View licenses -> tap 9 times on the touchpad -> Meet Team, you’ll be able to see a 360 degrees panorama of developers of Google Glass. In the middle stays Sergey Brin, the founder of Google. The panorama moves when you turn your head.
In the future we will be able to use the Glass in the stores. For example if we are in a book store and we want to find a particular book, we ask Google Glass where it is. The device shows us instructions on how to get to our book.
