I am doubtful, if it were that earth shattering they could never have kept a lid on it, and I find it hard to believe a personal scooter (if that is what it is ), no matter how efficient, could change the way we live, except on the simplistic level.
Now, if it was powered by Fusion then thats another matter...

Just had a thought, has anyone looked through the patents, it is bound to be there somewhere.

But what if that scooter is powered by an engine with cheap and virtually unlimited fuel?

It isn't aimed at consumers, yet.. It's aimed at businesses. The post office could do their job in a tenth of the time. Imagine the tax dollars saved there alone. And I would still do my 25 miles of cycling every day even if I could get around easier - don't know about everyone else.

I don't know about you but I'm ready to overclock this badboy.. 40mph here we come lol

Well for some reason I am thinking that the product could be for anyone, but I am thinking that it is really aimed for the elderly.
Personally I would feel terrible about myself and my self-respect would be gone if I couldn't even walk myself around.
