Luggage
Radio controlled, motorized luggage | |
Why should moving your luggage be like a trip to Gold's Gym? Take ordinary radio-control car technology, attach a hitch, and have the car tow the luggage! For kicks, you can have smash-up derbies in front of the check-in desk. Who said air travel had to be boring.

Just build it into the suitcase, make the outer surface of the suitcase/briefcase from PV material and slip an electric motor into the axle assembly of each wheel. Radio control unit and Voila! |

They're usually concerned about the "bomb" part, not the "radio-controlled" part. |

But it would take a lot of concentration to steer, and it would be likely to tip over, and the mechanism would make it doubly heavy when you do need to pick it up. |

Program in some Butt Recognition Scanning capability, so it could take a digitised image of its owner's butt. Then it would just have to look up, match your butt with the one in memory and it could follow you wherever you went. |

Small, mobile, sniffs butts? Why not just get a little dog, train it *really* well, and strap a suitcase to one of those vest things you see on little old ladies' pooches. |

Sorry waugs. I didn't realise I had rebaked your shopping cart idea. Must've missed it in the melee. |
