This is a brilliant design. It seems to me that the story, as told in the video, is missing a possible opportunity to develop a water delivery industry. If Grameen bank can use microcredit to enable cell phone owners to become micro-telcos in Bangladesh, then perhaps these tricycles can be used by micro-entrepreneurs to deliver water.
no question about it - we should connect with google and the bicycle company to follow up on the story.
