I don't know if I agree that man-on-the-street pseudo journalistic stuff is one of the "typical scenarios." Any time I see a product like this I think:

    1) Can I use it to watch a more immersive movie without bothering people who may be in the next week?
    2) Can I use it to make my games more enjoyable, either console or PC?
    3) Can I use it to record IPSC/USPSA matches?
    4) Can I use it for work?

I don't think these will make more people bother strangers on the street, it's just another way the same people can do that.
