I want my hoverchair!

Until doctors develop a non-surgical cure for Ataxic Cerebral Palsy, I want this.

I am disappointed every single day that the Hoverround doesn't actually hover.

What about that thing that Baron Harkonnen used to get around ... the repulsor belt thingy? That could be good, and easier to get through doors than the chair, eh?

For a while we had this, but since it was actually priced fairly reasonably and noone could make exorbitant profits off of it, it's not currently being produced.

Actually, there's more than one...they're called suspensors. something like that could possibly work, but theres no indication of how the Baron actually steered the thing...unless he steered by shifting his weight (like how a Segway works), but I saw no evidence of that.

Even something that just slides across the floor, and levitates when necessary would be nice.

It's very nice, I've seen one in person. He loves it.
