I think you're probably right, but I think the overall equation is more
complex than that - it's the whole user life-cycle and supply chain
logistics/economics that defines the outcome. They are probably side-by-side
technologies. (Example: Look at how much the 'Wired'
http://www.wired.com/news/print/0,1294,49717,00.html article ends up talking
about methane refills). Therew's also a whole bunch of oil based companies
that won't like it.
