The startup started with just 10 scooters, but is expanding that to 50 over the coming weeks, as it opens its service in a public beta today.Scoot hopes to provide a local transportation alternative to cars and other vehicle, with availability of Vespa-style scooters for rental for a maximum of $5 an hour, or $10 per commute during the week. The startup, which bills itself as the "easiest, fastest, cheapest ride in SF," has built up a small fleet of scooters that users can rent and unlock with their mobile phones.Original Link: http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/Techcrunch/~3/NYg_FE8bhX4/
