Q: Will Google Glass be availible in China?
What with Google's *outstanding* relationship with the gov't, and China's likely worries about a population walking around with cameras on their heads recording everything, I suspect that it will not be available here. Has anyone heard anything for certain?

Not sure about Google Glass here (can China really stop people from buying it somewhere else and bringing it in?), but I know Baidu is readying its own version:

While I'm no tech guy, I suspect that China has ways to seriously cripple the functionality of Google Glass, while at the same time allowing/encouraging a neutered Baidu version on the masses
Traveler:
And, of course, the Baidu version was developed "completely independently" of Google's technology
