The pricing is clearly a major stumbling block, but on a multi-mode commute I think it could be a real time saver. If you have an hour long walk on one end of your commute, something like this could shorten it to fifteen minutes without the hassle of dealing with a bike on the bus or train and secure parking for it. Just take it into your office and plug it in for a recharge.
