The dark satanic rumour mill has manufactured a hell on earth yarn claiming that Google is testing the next version of the Google Glass called GG1.

Apparently the geek gizmo is being looked at by the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) which is testing them to see they are safe for human use. They are not the fashion police, so they are more likely to pass the test.

The next Glass details revealed in GG1's documentation which said the new product is going to appear on a particularly Glass-like rectangular display.

The rumours suggest that the device is available on a submenu that requires users to "scroll left and right" -- the scrolling directions used on the last version of Glass.

Google pulled the gadget from testing, despite a fair bit of interest last year.
