You're wrong. Another company here in Germany has succeeded in developing another big Airship (Zeppelin NT, website is here: http://www.zeppelin-nt.com/index_uk.html) - Its not as big as the Cargolifter, but definitely bigger than the Advertising blimps. It is designed for tourism, making possible very low and very slow flights, but at the same time not as loud as if you would use a helicopter. i think it is designed for somewhere around 20 passengers...
By the way, both the Zeppelin NT and the Cargolifter are not simple blimps but more sophisticated zeppelins (they have a solid frame).
