You can: the company has just started pre-orders for itsJet heads-up display (http://www.engadget.com/2013/05/15/recon-instruments-jet-hands-on/) in a $499 Pilot Edition. The inaugural eyewear will come with apps for both cyclists and triathletes, and it should beat the production model to market by several months. There's even a financial incentive for that impatience, as the pricing goes up to $599 on July 21st. If you don't mind a potentially rough experience while tracking your mid-race performance, the Pilot Edition is waiting at the source link.
