    Imagine if people tried to drive with those things on. I bet some people would try it. The ultimate hands-free device.

    Accidents waiting to happen -- even for pedestrians!

    Remember the segway? Hope this is thing will fade away too. What next to distract techies and wannabes?
  • I like these actually, they have alot of potential.

    Whatever happened to the segway? It seems like it would be good for moderately-handicapped people and elders. How much did it cost? If it were affordable, I'd imagine kids would have a blast with it.

    Oh, that rings a bell. I remember hearing they're used by law enforcement. Probably some of the only people who can afford them. Thanks, you guys.

    My dad said that they would be nice to give speeches with, I like the gps feature as well. The potential I see is if they can add different applications to it. From how they seem now I admit it would be a novelty item.
