Is it just me or does the linq wheel seem ill-made?

    When I looked at the Linq wheel when I was last in Vegas, it looked like the pods were ill-positioned. I am not sure how to describe it, but it looked like the pods would tilt while they were on top of the wheel and so people would not be able to stand up straight. It's a bit confusing to me.

    I think when the Dinq gets a head of steam up, people will be pinned to the bottom of those pods, screaming their heads off, as they go upside down at the top.

    I can't wait until the High Roller does it's best '1941' impression and takes out McCarran.

    Do the video monitors inside, that display adverts for Linq retailers; turn upside-down with you as well?
    I'd hate to try and read those ads while we're clinging to the sides of the thing when we finally hit the top!

    Smo, they have licensed some of that iPhone technology - however, if you hit the 'lock screen' button - look out! All your change and unused condoms rattle around in that pod like gravel in a hubcap!

    I wonder how much sway the pods will have when the winds get really strong?
