    I thought there were already motorised skateboards on the market? A quick search of the internet revealed – there is at least one company in Australia who is manufacturing them.

    I reckon I’ve seen these around the university. The riders hold joysticks to control them!

    I do! As others have mentioned, they already exist. In a way the idea makes me think a little of a Segway (http://www.segway.com/)
