Can Ray-Ban’s manufacturer make Google Glass hip? Google Glass has been mercilessly mocked as clunky and nerdy, despite attempts to associate the pricey device with fashion shows and trendy magazine pieces. A new alliance with Luxottica aims to inject some glamor into the eyeware line. Luxottica is k**wn for its Ray-Ban and Oakley lines of glasses, but also produces Versace, Miu Miu, Chanel and Vogue products. The current $1,500 price of Google Glass places it automatically in the luxury category - but it's **t clear whether the target group of wealthy geeks necessarily has much overlap with the Alain Mikli crowd.
