Very cute, but I'm not really convinced it'll work. Compressed air drive - in luggage on an aircraft? Stairs? Collisions? Useful range / recharging time? Bumps/uneven loads/sudden turns making it tip over? And it's a magnet for mischievous kids. Oh, and how well will it work outside the smooth floors of an airport, if it doesn't have the wheels and handle of standard luggage?

But very cute.

Definitely more foots ...

Can you imagine a couple of hundred of these in Heathrow? All following the wrong owners and tripping other passengers up! I'd have loved to have seen a Marx Brothers film of it.

You have to walk quite slow for the thing to keep up. Mind you can you imagine a whole fleet doing a Buzby Berkerley number in an airport concourse.
