MetaPro AR is the cool that Google Glass wants to achieve

If Google Glass had a cooler, older brother, and he wore smart glasses, MetaPro AR would be them. Unlike others' in the game, MetaPro AR are the most fashionable in wearable eyewear while packing a some pretty mean specs. MetaPro aims to deliver a “holographic experience", which lets you interact with the digital world in your field of view by using finger and gesture interaction.

Meta is currently working with developers on getting 500+ apps up and ready for the device. Pretty awesome for a first-generation product.

Now for the pricetag: MetaPro retails for just about $3,000 which is exactly double the current price tag of Google Glass. However, when you look at the spec. sheet (i.e. dual eye display, 2D rather than 3D, etc) the price is justified.
