    I came across this article and thought the concept was really interesting. If the price was low enough with a really good range, this would be a great commuter for any of us who live in or around cities. I'm sure eventually the technology will be present that will allow this to go hundreds of miles and be recharged quickly and easily. Be cool to see within my lifetime anyway.

    Battery powered bikes and vehicles in general will not really hit it big until recharge time is in minutes rather than hours. This will not happen barring some major breakthrough in physics and/or chemistry. Our battery tech is really kinda sucky...
