Have you ever gone on vacation to an exotic location only to have your un-powered luggage ruin your whole experience? Well then this next product is for you: PML Flightlink out of England has developed self propelled and power assisted luggage sets. The luggage, expected to be sold through Live Luggage, should make it to the marketplace later this year.

Hopefully a memo to our National Security office will alert Airport Officers to this new technology and help these passengers avoid watching their flights take off from security questioning rooms.
