June 21, 2008 at 11:01 AM · super hush hush until the 25th eh....irony at it's finest

June 21, 2008 at 12:06 PM · Sweeeeeet :)

June 21, 2008 at 1:54 PM · Sounds good!

June 21, 2008 at 5:17 PM · Although still hush as stated, not the biggest of surprises, just log onto their web site and Orlando flashes and has a link. No news on the link yet, been checking for a while now. I guess I'll check back June 25th.

Now, an ultra giant Ferris Wheel with tons of capsules holding 40+ passengers each....ugh...talk about a slow loader. Do they have some sort of advanced loading system to diminish wait times and lengthen the actual ride time?? Sitting up at the top of a revolving observation deck for hours waiting to unload may not be my idea of a good time....

Do they serve booze in the capsules?

June 22, 2008 at 11:58 AM · Now that's a fine idea. A barkeep at the base to serve drinks for the ride, perhaps some music that doesn't remind you of the dentist's office, cushioned seats in the capsules...

I think that as long as they make the capsules comfortable, it will be fine
