Geek Scooter Detail

Jared writes -

A year ago we had the opportunity to produce a promotional product for one of our clients using a new vino scooter and some geek know-how. The end result was a rolling system capable of long distance war driving, GPS navigation, Pir8 Radio Station, Skype calls on the road as well as recording your favorite TV program so you don't miss Lost because you are lost.

All that plus an antennae beefy enough to hit a home run with! - The Ultimate Geek Scooter

unless, of course, your objective is not actually to get where you're going, but is instead to have some kind of spectacular wipeout shortly after departure.
