GroundSurf relies on Bluetooth

Published on 11/14/2007

The GroundSurf gadget is slightly different from a skateboard as it comes with three wheels, and it's front wheel is equipped with an electrical motor as well. The most unique feature of the GroundSurf? It allows you to control the speed of the board using your Bluetooth-enabled cellphone. Touchscreen phones from HTC has the honor of being the first to control the GroundSurf, and one can only assume that the iPhone will follow suit shortly after. I'm not too sure about using a touchscreen phone to navigate around as touchscreens aren't as sensitive as I would like them to be. Why not create a WiFi-compatible version that can be used with the DS as well? The GroundSurfer will be launched next year, retailing between $1,770 and $2,040.
