Google Glass gets latest software update
Google Glass early adopters will be receiving an OTA software update this week, if you have not already.

Changelog (via Phan):

Change to sync policy: require power + wifi for background uploads
Crash reporting
Incoming G+ notifications (direct shares, comments, +mentions), including ability to comment and +1
Incoming Hangout notifications
Transcription of queries & messages is now wicked-fast
Long-press to search from anywhere in the UI (no longer just from off)
International number dialing + SMS
Hop animation on disallowed swipes in the UI
New On-Head Detection calibration flow
Show device Serial Number on Device Info card
More reliable estimation of battery charge remaining
New recipient-list mosaic


To update, you must plug the glasses into a charger first, adds Google.
