  • 9to5 Google reports the first commercial Google Glass (NASDAQ:GOOG) model features "a larger prism display, as well as an Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) Atom processor that brings better performance and moderately improved battery life." Connectivity is provided via Bluetooth and dual-band Wi-Fi.
  • The site adds Google is internally referring to the Glass model as Enterprise Edition. Many businesses and institutions have come up with potential uses for Glass, even as consumer attitudes towards the product remain quite mixed, thanks in large part to the privacy concerns caused by its camera.
  • Still no word on the model's pricing or official launch date. It's expected to be much cheaper than the $1,500 charged for the Explorer edition of Glass, which Google stopped selling earlier this year.
  • A larger display could provide an ASP boost for Glass microdisplay supplier Himax (NASDAQ:HIMX). The WSJ reported last fall Intel would provide the CPU for a next-gen Glass model.
