Yeah... some stuff looks kinda weird.
But it's a pretty interesting design waiting to be improved, that's all.
I really need one of those right now.
I take 2 buses everyday to take my university classes.
The second bus though, not only is slow as hell, completely packed and has the worst waiting times, it also covers a distance that's short enough to be made using a bike.

Few things to note:
1. Anyone notice btwn :48 and :51 when he is setting the bike backup. For some reason the seat was on the ground and also it looked like an O ring was rolling around on the floor.
2. And also as he is getting on it and taking it apart the left pedal magically disappears
3. the whole time he's not pedaling at all.
Other than that pretty neato design =P

I like the versatility but not the price.

It reminds me of a lite-brite for some odd reason...

Perhaps everyone who is complaining about the *color schemes* of this thing might be served by re-reading the Nyko-Nintendo lawsuit settlement.

Judging by how that played it out seems the decision to visually brand their product *not* as the "subtle-white-mac-alike" nintendo look is just following their nunchuck redesign settlement guidelines.

@Matthew Wilson:
Which should make them lawsuit-proof with this addition to their line (well, at least from Nintendo lawyers...). They have to maintain a few basic dimensions or it won't work with peripheral items, like the Nerf-to-Wiimote guns, drop-in chargers, or all of the various decorative attachments (gloves, lightsaber blades, etc.), so they have to go for a different look in some other way. Personally, I'd rather see them make the cases in a range of colors, and not just tired-old-overused-plain-vanilla... white. That would satisfy all the people who don't want to use the Wiimote gloves but still want options that have a little more life to them.
