Quick! Somebody get me a Snow Mosquito!

I find it interesting that 1) they don't show him crossing a street, 2) him taking off or 3) take that incredibly sharp corner they present about 2/3 of the way through this thing. at least the segway showed its capabilities its infomerchial AND made Bush look like a dumbass.

was that a pauly shore movie about college?

I always thought walking involved too much leg movement. Thanks iShoe.

Inspired by Apple and Lamborghini, it says on their site? WTF, could this POSSIBLY be more offensive?

It's nice to see rollerskates make a comeback.

Wait until Chinese restaurant delivermen start tooling down the sidewalk on these things.

Snatching purses made easier!

Oh, phooey. I say just put superdense rubber on all shoes , ezpecially Manolos and Jimmy Choos and lets us all bounce all over the place.

But then, I'm having a bad day.

Is Bloomberg going to charge users $8 a foot to ride into Midtown?

Great - more ways for people to be fat.

More kamikaze, mow-down-the-pedestrians roller sports in Central Park

I understand that they also melt any ice and snow underfoot, and are endorsed by the American Academy of Trial Lawyers. Win, win win!

Add some retractable spikes and a death ray and I'm all over them.

7 minute abs

I am assuming these are meant for the wide open spaces in New York City? Oh wait...

@SarahHeartburn: Or forget shoes and make all sidewalks a moonbounce.

It's like people who make their dog tow them on their rollerblades, without the dog.

Coming soon -- "Pimp My Shoes"

At least this technological advancement won't lead to any kind of horrific, ungodly injuries.

Finally! An answer to the long-standing question: What would Gob Bluth do?
"Come on Michael! You wouldn't ask a man with $600 rollerskates to walk a block in your shoes!"

Seeing as a decent pair of rollerskates costs $49.99, they've finally managed to quantify the cost of laziness at $550.

Also, be sure to look for these the next time you get mugged. By someone who stole them from somebody else.

How unfashionable.

nice helmet, dork.

well, at least the backing music is sufficiently radical.

Anyone else just want to flat out TACKLE that fucker.....hard?

What does the "I" stand for? I look like an Idiot?

This thing must have been sponsored by orthopedic surgeons. One foot in the pothole, another foot on a half-eaten felafel, 9-1-1 call.

Why do I keep having these dreams about wishbones?

Looks like fun. But then, so did Gnip Gnops.

@Michael Jahn: ...At least not until the secondary market of stolen shoes comes up. I love seeing $1,500 racing bikes covered in duct tape.

I can't wait to get run off the sidewalk by these dorks. It's not like the sidewalks are underused in NYC.

Holy Crap! It's bad enough that kids (with dumb-ass parents) roll around the mall in Wheelies endangering small children, pregnant women, and the elderly. WTF!

those look very useful, but for 600 dollars its a little out of my budget

I want a remote control device that operates other people's iShoes, so I can whisk them into oncoming traffic.

If I remember correctly from the CES footage, they only get a couple of miles before they need a recharge, if that. So no kid will want them when they can have those wheelies that work on sugar power.
