CNBC mentioned that the technology is still a far way off into being viable for normal popular consumer use, it was this morning. PLUG will be taking one of its fuel-cell powered rides down to the 40s tommorrow.

More selling pressure in PLUG? MKTY insiders anxious to sell shares. Here's an excerpt from tonight's news in Bloomberg out at 5:21 PM: Mechanical Technology May Sell Some Plug Power Shares, CFO Says Albany, New York, Jan. 10 (Bloomberg) -- Mechanical Technology Inc.'s chief financial officer said the company may sell some of its 32 percent stake in fuel-cell maker Plug Power Inc., whose shares have almost quadrupled since late October. Plug Power's rise has boosted the stock of Mechanical Technology by more than 81 percent in the last four days of trading. Mechanical Technology, a maker of sensing instruments and computer-based balancing systems for aircraft engines, formed Plug Power last year with Detroit utility company DTE Energy Inc., which also owns a 32 percent interest in Plug. Plug Power shares climbed with those of rivals because of analyst and press reports predicting a surge in fuel-cell usage as pressure to cut pollution grows. Mechanical Technology may sell Plug Power shares to pay off a $22.5 million loan, said Cynthia Scheuer, Mechanical Technology's chief financial officer. ``Today, we wouldn't have to sell many shares to pay it off,' she said.
