Oh, please don't get me wrong. Changing flats definitely sucks! Especially on your commute. But it's just that they're an inevitable part of commuting. There are a few manufacturers offering airless tires. I've heard they're a pain-in-the-arse to get on the rim and that they ride like jack-hammers but they're probably the only "sure-fire" way to prevent flats.
