Ned- there's a book called "where's my jetpack" by dr. daniel h. wilson (it was supposed to be called "where's my fucking jetpack," but that's not marketable to the children of wired magazine execs...) that should explain why you are still commuting by 2 or 4 wheels.
In regards to the shoes, the "Air Yeezy," Kanye West's shoe, has been around for a little while, but used the B2TF2 nikes as inspiration.
Personally, I want the Reeboks from Aliens. Those are dope.
Does anybody else remember some "The Making of Back to the Future" TV special that came on around the time Back to the Future Part II came out? And there was some dude on there--I think he was a special effects artist for the movie--saying, "Oh, the hoverboards aren't even a special effect! Those were invented years ago, but the government decided they were too dangerous, so they couldn't sell them. So there's this big warehouse full of unused hoverboards, and we just got a couple and put 'em in the movie!"

I believed that asshole for like 10 years.
