That's all the better they could do? Someone with a title like "Senior Vice President of New Product Development" should be straight up getting fired for that crap.article said:
Great, one (two?) more way(s) for lazy rich f'ers to annoy me.
I can't help but wonder how that "lean-steer" feature on the offroad version is affected by being on an off-camber trail.
and george bush STILL won't be able to stay on it.
I won't consider riding one unless they rename it the "XtReMe"

hmmmm, $5500 for a two wheel vehicle that stays upright, goes offroad and turns by leaning over... what kind of idiot would ever pay so much for that??
wait a minute.

I see people in downtown Seattle on those things-they give me the creeps. Are there not enough overweight people in the us?
wtf is "off-terrain".......

My favorite was when someone added a small third wheel in the back and eliminated the gyroscope. Basically the same thing for 1/10th the price.
Or in the early models when the low battery control didn't work, and when you ran the battery down enough the gyroscope would stop working before the rest of it shut down.
Still, one can't help but stand in awe of "the future of transportation."

I saw my very first Segway in person at BWI airport last week. One of the airport workers was moving through the terminal on it and I was surprised how modest the speed was. While walking on the moving sidewalk, we were in a dead heat. He only overtook me when I had to span the area before the next moving sidewalk after stepping off one...and I am not known to be fleet of foot.
Top speed is a little over 12mph IIRC, still a lot faster than you walk.llkoolkeg said:
I do think it's funny how much the guy hyped it, though.

Segways are actually pretty sweet, a friend of a friend has the gnarly one that does like 20+mph.

"Marty had a little lamb
Its fleece was made to order
And everywhere that Marty went
He took his strange disorder
He brought it to a birthday bash
At the hostess' urgin'
But she was shocked when she found out
The lamb was not a virgin!
He took it to a pal's stag night
The host got very cold
For when he lifted lambkin up
He saw the hole was old
The answer for all lonely guys
Who just can't get to sleep
Instead of blowing up this ewe
Buy ten and count the sheep"
