And recognize you when you walk in the door, with a clerk wearing Google Glass hooked up to their CRM system.  "Hello, Mr. Bond, can I get you that shaken martini while you check in?"

The first time I go into a store and am greeted by name from a clerk I have never met before courtesy of a Glass, that will be the LAST time I go into that store.
 
Sorry, I just would not appreciate the clerk knowing that much about it, even if I AM a regular customer, before I provide my name or phone number or "customer appreciation card" (Customer tracking and targeted marketing card really....).

Yeah, that's the thing about using technology to try and overcome the limits of Dunbar's number - it just comes off as creepy.
