My Wheelchair Is A Concept Car

We were thinking and we decided that car companies should make wheelchairs oh, wait.
The Toyota iReal and other technology aimed at the mainstream that confuses us. Able-bodied people really need this stuff?

Cool if your chair can go up and down stairs. It would have to be a hibred because I can't fil'er up with gas. $60,000 are fun if you don't have to pay out of your own pocket. What do you thing about those scooter for people who don't need it for mobility?

How come this car is so(relatively)cheap and our non-techno-cool wheel chairs are so expensive? Is this tech available for us? Can we contact iBot or wherever their product development folks and suggest cross pollination? Am I mixing my metaphors? Probably...I would love to have a phone/gps/etc. thingamajig on my wheelchair. It just kicks it that ablebodied persons get the benefit before we do in the "personal wheeled vehicle/chair" arena.

We agree!

The program we use is called Call Recorder... is an add on program for Skype on the Mac.

That reminds me of John's idea of pimping out his chair. And what's it called iBot or something I forgot. Interesting stuff...maybe we should ask his grandma and see if there are designs he left and make them ourselves :)
