PC World: Meet Alto Tech's 'Cool Glass,' a vastly cheaper alternative to Google Glass

PC World: Not surprisingly, no one at the Alto Tech booth at CES wanted to call its Cool Glass a knockoff of Google Glass. Sure, it looks almost identical. The name’s nearly the same.

"780mAh battery" yeah, no thanks. I've seen what batteries do when they overheat; but hopefully they won't have a Samsung situation.
