Few months back, we had written about the iShoes, but then they were only a concept. Now, the concept has become a reality and these shoes are up for grabs. For $620, you get a pair of freaky-looking rollers that are powered by A123 Lithium-ion battery, weigh 5.3kg and can carry you off for 3miles. The battery takes 2 hours for a full recharge. These rear wheel drive shoes have a maximum speed of 13.5mph. So now you have a mode of personal transportation with zero-emissions and a speed that suits its size.
