Carter,

<<When do you think a Golf Course version of Ginger will come out? I think it would need thicker tires, GPS device mounted on front, green paint, and a place for the bag.>>

Good question, Carter, one I've considered as well. It seems a natural, doesn't it? Just might be particularly appropriate the Senior Tour, don't you think? <VBG> From what I've seen with the mail carrier version, attaching a bag full 'o sticks would be a snap. I agree about the tires and I'm sure Michelin could whip out a more ballooned fairway friendly tire no sweat.

As to "when" it's anybody's guess. I'd sure like to be a fly on the wall at a DEKA marketing strategy session to hear some of the ideas being floated. My best guess would be after the roll-out of the consumer version, though.

Did anybody catch the Tonight Show last night? Dean Kamen brought three HTs and Russell Crowe, Jay Leno and Dean tooled around the set. Crowe was a little uncertain at first but got the hang of it pretty quick. Dean was attempting to guide him around by his arm and Crowe whacked him and told him to get his hands off. "Bloody inventors," he groused. Looks like Kamen's learning curve to acquire pop culture literacy is a steep one, lol. Nobody but a director can tell a movie star what to do!
