Title: Google Glass Sale April 15th Post by: serenitys on April 11, 2014, 04:50:41 PM Just picked this one up - posted last week that it's supposed to be bundled with an app called Eaze, which *only* uses bitcoin.
GG is having a one day only sale on April 15th. Let's see what sort of new swings this brings in http://www.digitaltrends.com/mobile/google-glass-goes-on-sale-next-week-for-one-day-only/#!DC7SE Title: Re: Google Glass Sale April 15th Post by: njcarlos on April 11, 2014, 04:53:50 PM "You’ll have to hand over $1500 (plus tax) for the device, though for your money Google is promising to throw in a free shade or frame as well."
Cost prohibitive much? Don't expect this to make a fraction of a dent in the BTC market. Title: Re: Google Glass Sale April 15th Post by: serenitys on April 11, 2014, 05:02:03 PM That can also be read that GG is handing off to the early adopters who *can* afford it, and if they *can* afford GG, they *can* afford to spend money on BTC when they learn more about it or have the opportunity to.
If you're basing it on GG not being affordable to mainstream, of course, but they price it at 1500 so they've got a different market in mind.

A lot of things happening on that day. Does it have any astrological importance?
Title: Re: Google Glass Sale April 15th Post by: bitcoinsrus on April 11, 2014, 07:53:03 PM What's up with April 15? A lot of things happening on that day. Does it have any astrological importance? That is the day PBOC halts banks from dealing with bitcoins (in China). Also tax day (USA). And it will be mostly cloudy with a hint of sunshine ;) People are speculating about what will happen on this day and the days leading up to and following it.
