I agree. I think the acronym "IT" refers to Individual Transporter. Probably a hover craft of some kind. At least I hope it is because I want one!

My only questions are 1)Can I get on a waiting list to be the first guy on my block to have one and 2) who's handling the IPO? I want in on that one too!

Of course, I could be frustrated when it finally gets revealed and I find out that it's actually a modified garbage disposal that converts waste into energy without emitting polution.

That would be cool but not so much fun!

By the way, the news articles never said that Bill Gates saw the device. They said that Kamen would become richer than Bill Gates in less than 5 years once the device is in production (according to Credit Suisse First Boston, anyway). Steve Jobs of Apple computer and Jeff Bezos of Amazon are the ones involved with the development. They apparently sit on the board.
