Tiny electric scooter with built-in iPod amp

Yamaha is shipping a tiny, 19mph battery-powered scooter with an integrated iPod (controls on the handlebars), that plays through a built-in amp and loudspeakers. The whole thing weighs all of 100lbs and can be folded for storage. Link (Thanks, Gaijin Biker!)

Update: Gaijin Biker sez, "The iPod-compatible model is a "concept" version only, that is NOT being sold to the public (at least yet). The version currently on sale has no iPod functionality."
