Honesty that’s a really bad time to launch as most people will still be broke from Christmas.

Though it could be a plan to make it even more of a status symbol, so more people will budget or take out loans to get one.

Honesty though I don’t think they will become a massive part of anyone’s daily lives anytime soon. As imagine the theft of these things if people started wearing them in public, and sure they can put all the anti theft stuff into it they want, but that hasn’t effected phone theft much.

But my big thing is what does it offer me I can’t already do with my phone. The reason the smartphone was such a hit is it made so many things into one device and it is cheaper then getting all of those devices, and there is a genuine improvement in out and about life with one.

With a headset I don’t really see what it does that I can’t already do easily at home. I have a laptop and a TV and both of those are cheaper. There is the gaming aspect, but no killer titles in that space. And I do worry about the negative mental health effects of such a device.

So I wouldn’t be surprised if this is a flop and this kind of tech only gets usage in specialist applications.
