Bodum Double-Walled Glass
The first question that comes to mind is what took 'em so long?
I mean, we've had storm windows since forever, so why not adapt the same air-insulation technology to everyday objects like a drinking glass?
Bodum has done it, simply and elegantly.
They make the glasses in a variety of sizes and price them very reasonably: $12-$20 for two.

Far more important -- for me -- than the insulating qualities of a glass is the thickness of the rim. I drink most things quickly enough that their temperature doesn't change much. But a thick-rimmed glass is a nightmare.
Judging from the pictures, I'd say Bodum has a loser on their hands. Novelty sales, and no more.
