Re: Dean Kamen and the new "Think"

These little cars are really amazing. I first saw one in an electric vehicle competition I was competing in back in 1999.

The quote in that article from Larry Page from Google is semi-accurate.
Quote:
"We drove one a long time ago," Google co-founder Larry Page says. "Sort of a milk-carton-material car."
It's actually more like the material they use to make the Step-2 kids slides and playground equimpent. Kinda funny when you first realize that fact, but it really is a very strong material.

They are a blast to drive, and although kinda small, very comfortable.

I can't wait to see the Sterling put into one and see these Th!nk's* mass produced. <crosses fingers>

I'll be first in line for one when that happens.


*Think may be the newly adopted name, but when I first saw these the "I" in Think was replaced with an "!" for a more trendy name.
