Bike Friday are leaking - virally? - some info on their new machine for 2007, which promises, much like the much derided (although less so in the US, where not only do the cops in Philly station but also the late Rumsfeld use one) Segway to solve the world's transport problems.
Info. and some videos here: http://www.bikefriday.com/tikit
Could see it denting sales of Bromptons in the states, where Bike Friday is already pretty dominant along with Dahon, but not because of it's frighteningly fast fold (all to do with a catch in the seat column and internal wiring gubbins - wouldn 't like it to start collapsing on an emergeny stop), but because (a), it's new, and (b), it has a little handle and wheels along like a little barrow. The B can sort of do that - but I've never seen anyone look particularly happy and unlopsided. Great for those - such as women generally - who find a Brompton a bit of a dead weight.
Another question: where are all the Brompton videos on YouTube and Google Video?
