Default RE: Impact air bag jacket anyone got one?

I saw a segment on them on a motorcycle related show on Speed I think it was. They looked like they would work pretty good, but I didn't like the way you have to latch on to the bike to trip the trigger on them.

I would be concerned that you might end up attached to the bike and it not releasing properly and then you and an 800lb bike are all tangled up flip flopping down the road.
