For all of those who have been dreaming of strapping on a jetpack and flying around like a barn swallow on crack (or maybe like a hummingbird on sedatives), Martin releases its actually viable jetpack this fall. Flight time is pegged at something over twenty minutes, and it won't even burn your clothes off! Here's a story about it from Technovelgy, another from io9.com, and Martin's actual press release. It ain't cheap, but as volume increases (if?), price might come down to something Joe Average can handle from it's initial price tag of $90,000.
