I'm with one of the posters when I say where do you keep the diapers and 20# of other stuff you drag along with your little blessing?
Also, I don't like the termalogy of "the child is trapped in". And the poor kid looks like she is too!

Forget 20 pounds of stuff, I travel pretty light with my kid, but there is not even any place to put a water bottle. So add a big backpack to that lady's outfit. Other than the weird head gadget for the kid, it's actually a pretty cool contraption, though.

i love the Zigo... very nice. and for the price of a Chariot+necessary Chariot add-ons+bicycle it begins to have some advantages. just wish it had disc brakes.

I recently saw someone riding one on the Westside Greenway here in New York City. I'd imagine it would be rather cumbersome for any apartment buildings that don't have bicycle parking. It looks rather large to fit in most elevators and I wouldn't even want to think about carrying it up the stairs.
