They Arrived

One of First Images from New Meta Glasses

 I arrived home yesterday from errands just as the UPS truck pulled up to the house to deliver my replacement Ray-Ban Meta glasses.

It is an understatement to say that I was excited. 

My existing glasses had been broken and functioning as only expensive sun glasses for a number of months. I had finally been able to break through the protective cyber nonsense to actually secure help in replacing the glasses via warranty!

As I previously wrote, the company determined the glasses were out of warranty and were too old to be repaired, but made me a very sweet offer on new glasses. And I am happy to have the glasses with their varied and useful features back. 

As an example, I was able to have the glasses take the image just by telling it to take an image from the driver seat of the car. It was so easy, I had both hands on the wheel. It is impossible to do that with an iPhone or camera. And that is but one of its useful functions.

I have since learned that some cruise ships are limiting the areas that these types of glasses can be worn due to privacy concerns and so I likely will have to take along a more traditional pair for all around use.
