If the hype is true that a new invention will be more important than sliced bread, pantyhose and personal computers, I'll take one. The people who are talking about this new invention say it will change the way people live all around the world.
People are likely to have more than one in every family.
I can't vouch for the importance of pantyhose, but anything more important to society than sliced bread, personal computers or the Internet sounds like something I might want to own. The way I understand it, all the speculation erupted when a book contract was leaked. The contract was between respected inventor Dean Kamen and the Harvard Business School Press. IT is not identified but a number of famous inventors, entrepreneurs, business leaders and others have seen the invention. Riders stand on little winged platforms that stick out on each side of the single wheel.
