Google has expanded their Glass headset outside of the U.S. for the first time, making the device available to UK residents.
The beta Explorer program has priced the device at £1,000 (about $1,700 USD), slightly more expensive than the $1500 it costs in the U.S.
Reads the blog post:
Probably the question we've heard more than any other is: when will Glass be available outside the US? Well, we're starting out by dipping our toes across the pond.
Beginning today, we're extending our open beta Explorer program to the UK. The world sees the UK as a center (actually, a centre) of innovation. It has produced some of the greatest technology inventors and inventions of the last century, and people on the ground are always excited to explore new products and ideas.
So, if you are here in the UK and fancy a demo, RSVP to try Glass at our London Demo Days on June 27-28th at http://londonthroughglass.splashthat.com/ or join the Explorer Program and get Glass at www.google.co.uk/glass.
